I’m not sure what their preferred would be. Homeless, unsheltered, unhoused, I guess it would be important to find out from them. Homeless might be a misnomer as some of them may find that anywhere is their home? Not sure, not my space

I’ve been homeless. We didn’t give a fuck. Call us whatever as long as it’s not insulting.
