Homeless & Homelessness

What is the difference of homeless & homelessness?

The term homeless, we are implying that there is no hope for change.

When we say someone is experiencing homelessness, we are implying it is a process they won’t remain in that situation forever.

Homelessness prevention to consider includes:-
Identify strengths and existing support networks you have.
Considering other safe housing options outside of emergency shelter (e.g., relocation, doubling up with family or friends.)

Connecting and accessing other community services and resources available to you.

Exploring financial support or opportunities available to you.

Bono once said-If you want to eliminate hunger, everybody has to be involved.

Mother Teresa once said-If you can’t feed a hundred people, then feed just one.

Luke 14:13 encourages us inviting the poor, who cannot repay, to banquets.

Mathews 5:42, Give to the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you.

With Gratitude
