Sometimes Overlooked
The pictures below show clear signs of homelessness that could be easily overlooked by people who are not looking closely or don't know what to look for when identifying indicators of homelessness in their communities. Homeless people often go to considerable effort not to be seen. Being too visible can sometimes result in negative consequences such as harassment by police or property owners. The last thing anyone wants to hear when they're tired is to "keep moving."
