Causes of homelessness
Poverty
Poverty among the people has risen due to a substantial increase in the unemployment rate. The high unemployment rates are the main reason for poverty, causing adverse far-reaching negative effects on society. Lack of enough financial support has led to many people becoming homeless as they cannot afford permanent homes for themselves and their families.
Runaway reaction of children
Many children have opted for running away from their homes for psychological or physical abuse that they suffer either from their parents or siblings. Children running away end up in the streets where they become homeless street children. These children are more prone to abuse in their homes, and since they are defenseless, running away is their only way out.
