What is Homelessness?


According toThe United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, Homelessness is defined as" the condition of and social category of people who don't have a regular house or dwelling because they cannot afford, pay for, or are otherwise unable to maintain regular, safe, and adequate housing, or they lack, "fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence"

Of course this definition changes from country to country, but there is mutual understanding between countries that Homelessness constitutes not having a place to live.
