Most people will pass by Homeless People without even giving them a glance in their direction. Imagine what it would be like to be totally ignored by everyone you see. Isolated, alone, no one to care for you or to have concern for you. 


There are a number of reasons why people might ignore or look away from Homeless People when they pass by. Some people do not understand Homelessness. Others may not believe they can offer anything to help. And others might be afraid. And avoidance can be the easiest way for people to deal with the Homeless issue.

Homeless People Are Often Ignored

You can make a big difference in Homeless People's lives by simply acknowledging them.
