Homelessness

What is the definition of the social problem? (Why is it a problem? Provide citations of evidence
such as peer reviewed content, scholarly journals,)
To whom is this a social problem? (for example, communities of color, disabled people, LBGTQ
community, low-income families, children in the criminal justice system, youth, women on public
assistance, homeless men, low wage workers, etc) Historically, how have people impacted by this
social problem been viewed?
Why does the social problem exist? What issues need to be addressed or situations altered to solve
the problem?
To whom falls the responsibility to solve the social problem? What is the role of government in
facilitating a solution and what might a solution look like? What can everyday people do to create a
solution around this social problem? Look at the grassroots organizing pdf that I included in the
email. Are there examples of non-government groups doing something about this?
