What do homeless shelters do for homeless people?
I can only really put this from the perspective of a shelter I used to live in I’m afraid. My shelter provided immediate emergency accomodation for homeless people and also provided a scheme to provide 2 year long accomodation in a different area of the building. Then, along with the help of councillors, you were found Council-funded permanent housing. And you are given food, provided 2 meals a day. However, in the 2 year block you were assigned a communal kitchen and utensils and you had to buy your own food. Thankfully, you were given your own fridge with a lock.
