Nowadays, there are many people are do not have money, jobs or house, so they sleep on the streets and they are called homelessness. According to BBC (2012) “The number of households declared in need of emergency accommodation in England rose by about 25% over the past three years, new figures sugges.”However, the government should build hostels, so the homeless can sleep in them and looking for jobs for them. This essay will present three solutions for homelessness.
However, there are many solutions for homelessness. Firstly, it is not just people sleeping on the streets. There are many homeless are have health problems such as pneumonia, frostbite, bronchitis and trench foot because the do not have money for medicine. In addition, the government should provide health centers especially for the homeless. For example, if a homeless has cancer and he or she does not have money to pay for the hospital he or she will die on the streets. The experience of homelessness can have seriously detrimental effects on your physical and mental wellbeing. According to CESISI (2012) "On average, homeless people die at 47 years old, thirty years before the national average of 77, homeless women die at 43 years old." The government is responsible of her citizens.
Secondly, most of the homeless are unemployed. According to CESISI (2012) "Homelessness damages people's capability through loss of skills, through an inability to think about employment whilst worrying about housing, and through their health becoming impaired whilst homeless." In addition, if he or she does not have a job they cannot pay for their food or living. However, the government might take them and develop their education, therefor they can apply for a job. After that, they can have income, therefore they can pay for their food, house, children, education and health care.

In conclusion , every problem in the world has solutions. However , the solutions for homelessness are developing their education ,therefore they can get a job. Build hostels to help them having a convenient night. And finally, government should provide health centers for the homeless.
