Can You House Homeless in Commercial Buildings?

If rents are paid. Why not
Using vacant office buildings to house homeless individuals can provide a rapid and cost-effective response to homelessness, offering immediate shelter and safety. However, it may not address the underlying causes of homelessness, and there can be challenges related to safety, building code compliance, and community acceptance. The effectiveness of such initiatives depends on local circumstances, resources, and the willingness of the community to support and sustain them. Long-term solutions should involve a comprehensive approach that includes affordable housing, social services, and mental health support.
