sounds to me like you made a good decision based on prior incidents, your sons well being and ultimately your own well being.
going no contact has clear benefits for you and it may indeed help him too.
Leaving me to clean up my own mess was one of the things that eventually got me sober.
You ex has the same resources available to him as everyone else
If he does drink, it's REALLY not your fault - it just means he hasn't go a strategy to deal with life yet that doesn't include drinking yet.

That's just it though Dee.
We've seen the resources that are available.
He has no transportation to get to anywhere.
When he was able to get a bus pass with a couple dollars and went down to a place whose purpose is supposedly to get people in contact with these needed resources it was a no-go.
Every organization wants you to fill out a form.
Every organization wants payment of some form and insurance information.
He is truly without ANYTHING at this point.
What is someone to do when all they have is a tent?
Other people have an address to put down on a form.
Other people have a phone number or an emergency contact to put down on a form.
He literally has NOTHING at this point.
He is literally living out of a tent and has no way to eat, shower, or get to any of the so-called resources that are supposedly available.
He also has no support system.
He has no phone.
How is someone in that situation supposed to get help?
I'm really scared for him.
