Homelessness emanates from complex causes, which require strategic solutions. Despite our
different ambitions, skills, resources, and age-groups, we can help homeless people in various
ways. For instance, enhancing community cohesion and integration can prevent alienation,
which is a leading adverse effect of homelessness. Also, the community should view the
victims as part of the society because the problem affects the entire community. Volunteering
time to work with homeless people can change their lives in significant ways. Notable social
activities to engage with homeless individuals include washing, cleaning shelters, and
offering moral support. It is worth noting that advocacy can help to create systemic
transformations to tackle the problem of homelessness. For example, people can work with
agencies and respective programs to bring about positive changes in the community to end
homelessness. Moreover, contributing material support such as food, clothing, medicine,
books, computers, and other household goods can help to change the lives of homeless
people. A combination of the strategies mentioned above can help homeless people in our
community.
