Shelter: A Safe Place or At-Risk

What a homeless person needs, a shelter on top of the head some food for the starving stomach and clothes on the body. All the basic needs of a person are provided in a shelter home in some of the areas of cities and maybe a few in the countryside too. Basically, these homes are for the people who are not able to earn enough to feed themselves and their families so that they can at least have the fundamental necessities. 

But the question here is, are these shelters safe or not? The government runs these homes to fulfill homeless people’s needs and there are so many of them here, from different places even different countries. Some of them are addicted to drugs and stuff and can sometimes harm other individuals too, so they can risk the lives of others who really need to be taken care of. They also provide some mental and physical health support, counsellors to support in the development of housing plans etc.

The chances are high on the positive side as it is helping the needy but harm to others should not be neglected as this can be a serious matter to look after. They can even harm the other random citizens of the nation too.
