Street Homelessness

Street homelessness refers to individuals who lack stable, adequate housing and live outdoors or in places not meant for habitation, such as parks, doorways, or abandoned buildings. It often results from complex factors like economic hardship, mental health issues, substance abuse, or lack of affordable housing. These individuals frequently face challenges accessing services and support. Addressing street homelessness requires coordinated efforts to provide temporary shelter, healthcare, mental health services, and affordable housing solutions, recognizing the underlying social and economic factors that contribute to this vulnerable situation.
