Homelessness is a problem essentially many societys might suffersfrom. There are many factors that lead people to homelessness, the common reason why people end up homeless is because of their relationship breakdowns,Adjoa, A (2007)" when both where living together as they cannot afford the cost of living on their income alone".
There are many other reasons why people end up living in the streets such having lack of education and living in expensive countries which results in to unemployment which leads to unaffordable social debts, mortgage and paying rents.
Other reasons are that family, parents with drug or alcohol addict or they go through sexual and violent abuse which leads to let their child run away without thinking of the consequences or pre-planning due to the violence and abuse that they are living in. Some people lose their parents at a young age and live in with relatives but after time, they are unable to accommodate them so they end up in the cold streets.
Possible solutions to homelessness?
There are many solution to homelessness, but people must know that solutions to homelessness are not equal. People may help get people of the streets or keeping them of the streets and it may look as a great job but that is not the solution. Robert (2004) stated that government with big interest will find solutions to homelessness by the reason of why they are homeless and try figure out useful ways in which they could prevent homelessness. People need to consider that people who are suffering and living in the streets need support services which help them with advice, help people who have mental health problems or drug/alcohol addicts with support and health services that could help them recover. Homeless people could also eligible to be payed every week by the government a certain amount of money which could help them live on with as long as they are committed to look for a job.
Youth employment is now one of the main problems in some countries. Nowadays, young people have a lot of free time and they have finished their high school degree and also diploma. When young people have a free time they will do many negative things for example smoking, drinking , stealing , and using drugs. They will smoke because they are feeling so bad about them self and they will start to drink to forgot about their bad life that have no point. Stealing will be normal thing for them because they don't have any money to buy anything and using drugs will be the last thing due to their disappointed life and it can go threw death. Government must solve this problems so young people can have work and build their life instead of destroying it young people want to work any place they just want to start their life but if their is no jobs for them they will have to walk into the wrong and off course the wrong way is (SMOKING,DRINKING,STEALING,DRUGS)
