Should homeless individuals, that have refused available shelter or housing, be allowed to sleep or encamp on public property?

Yes

Yes, and create more social programs to provide free food, clothing, and medicine

No, and make it a criminal offense

No, government should intervene. I would associate refusal with mental illness or drug issues. Provide social programs to help them into housing and recovery.

No, because it's the state's job to provide houses to anyone instead of it being a profit-generating "activity".

No, if they refuse assistance, it should be mandatory to have them go a psychiatric evaluation and treat them accordingly.

Yes, out of the principal of freedom but it should be tken care of if it happens to become a problem

No, there must then be either more places for them or finding out why they are on the streets and help them find jobs.

More complex than a multi choice question

Yes, Only in defined places.

Yes if they have a good reason to refused shelter or housing.

Yes if the available shelter is not sufficiently renovated to be comfortable.

No, but shelters and public housing is given more funding and availability.

Yes, but not in city centers. There should be homeless camping grounds with proper sanitation outside of city centers, with social workers and non-compulsory drug and mental health treatment in proximity.

No, but create more social programs to provide education and other essential services

Yes, but for only those with reasonable cause that should be applied to an agreed standard.

Utilize government to provide housing and mental services.

No, but establish more programs and shelters

no offer free housing only and food and water assistance

No but create more social programs to provide basic services such as food, clothing and medicine

No, and solve the problems that cause people to not want to use homeless shelters and housing.

No, reopen mental hospitals with art-, culture-, and work-based training.

No, assign specific areas and create more social programs to provide free food, clothing, medicine and addiction treatment

Those who refuse shelter or housing very likely need mental health care and should receive it.

I believe we should help them as much as we can, and we could make some places where they can and others where you can’t.

Yes, unless there is a sanitary or safety issue. However all homeless people should have access to food and clothing along with medical and psychiatric support / evaluation.

No. But there should be a program for giving them jobs

they should not and be asked poliety to go becuase they jsut want money for dugs

No, I would at least want to put them in a hotel.

Yes, but allow private sector and citizens to find and finance solutions to help the homeless under the government supervision.

Yes, because they might change their mind and except the help.

Homeless individuals who've refused available shelter for themselves means that they can make their own decisions so they shouldn't be allowed to stay on public property.

Yes, but they have to clean up after themselves.

Depends on why they refuse to use public housing, as they can sometimes deny medicine (which they need) or animals.

Yes, but provide more services that support homeless people to get financially stable and off the streets

Yes, and create more social programs to provide free food, clothing, medicine and jobs

How might a community's approach to homelessness reflect its values, and what would you suggest as an ideal solution for all parties involved?

In your opinion, should comfort and personal preference play a role in whether people without homes can use public spaces for encampment?

What's the importance of having a personal space to you, and how does that influence your view on individuals seeking such space in public areas?

Why do you think someone might choose the insecurity of the streets over the security of a shelter, and what does that decision reveal about shelter systems?

How can society balance compassion for those without homes with the interests of the community at large, especially regarding public property usage?

What responsibilities do we have to ensure the safety and dignity of all individuals in our neighborhoods, including those who prefer to stay on public land?

Imagine being given housing options that didn't meet your needs; how would you want communities to support you in a way that respected your choices?

Reflect on a time you felt out of place; how would you feel if you were asked to move just because you were trying to find a resting space?

If you had no home and didn't feel safe at available shelters, where would you go, and why might public property seem like the only option?

How might your perception of public spaces change if you saw someone sleeping there, and what does that say about society's collective space?
