Effects of Homelessness on the Economy
Introduction
Homelessness has affected the economy in different circles in
the country. The conditions have forced the government to set
aside finances to accommodate those affected. Each condition
of homeless requires a unique way of tackling the problem in
order to balance the available resources of the country. Social
policies have also enabled the establishment institutions that
mandate the government of the day to facilitate programs to
restructure the social background of citizens (Minnery &
Greenhalgh, 2007).
History of Social policy
Social policies have been the highway through which the steps
of facilitating homelessness in the country. The country has a
rich past towards the establishment of social policies that will
enhance creation of homes to which the vulnerable can be
settled. The issue has also been a concerned of most developed
and developing countries across the globe. Most countries have
facilitated programs that will reduce and fight effects and
conditions of homelessness. An understanding of the steps taken
by individual countries has boosted exchange of data among
them to encourage how affected persons can be assisted to
maintain a proper status-quo (Wagner & Gilman, 2012).
Reforms in the Policy
The different ways that can provide reforms in the social
policies through which homelessness can be tackled in the
country. The good practice policy encourages how the state
needs to handle all the problems that result into homelessness.
The understanding of better reforms will enhance how a given
country establishes practices to stabilize the economic
conditions towards the financial stability. Every set procedure
must be followed to the later in case of divergent views.
Conditions met in any country will increase every undertaking
proved to be achievable towards killing impacts of
homelessness (NASW, 2011).
