Why some people become homeless ?

Lack of support. 🖤

Inheriting a home then selling it.. living in hotels and indulging in drink and gambling! Before they know it their money is gone.. showing nothing for it! Existing family are embarrassed and nobody wants to help. Depression and grief sets in.. no address nowhere to go.. it becomes desperate that the street becomes their home as welfare can't help with no address.😢

Lack of money, lack of connections, lack of job, lack of help

There are many 'reasons' of homelessness. Mental health issues, addictions, lack of social support, lack of family/friends to help, physical disabilities, difficulty obtaining and maintaining employment, lack of education, domestic violence/abuse, companies downsizing and/or going out of business, too many applicants for jobs, low wages compared to housing costs, Veterans transitioning back into civilian life/Veterans with no support/Veterans with mental and physical health issues, the list goes on and on.
I really like the Housing First approach. It also coincides with Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.

I think it’s a mental break with society ,they feel they don’t fit in . So next time you see someone homeless at least smile and say hello 😊. The gesture goes a long way

Around here, Hurricane Harvey destroyed many low cost homes/apartments and the owners decided not to repair them. The people had nowhere to go. Many were housed in hotels at government expense, but even that space was limited. To complicate matters, some businesses had to shut down, leaving low income people with no alternatives.

Expensive housing

Some choose it.

Because life and people.. There was a whole family once who became homeless because the dad's business partner stole All their money .. And left them with nothing

Because they didn't have a house

They give up!
