Pathway to Home App

For many homeless people, the feeling of loneliness and isolation is worse than not knowing where to sleep next. When I was working on addiction support, it was more important for many clients to have a charged mobile phone than a safe place to sleep. Communication and integration into a community was much more important to many, because the rest usually surrendered somehow. It is possible to design a mobile accommodation for the homeless, so that they practically always have their sleeping possibility with them. But the question is, is this approach really useful? We should rather try to reintegrate the homeless into society and not make it easier for them to be homeless or stigmatise them with a kind of backpack with a place to sleep.  According to a similar principle to the Wheelmap (an app that allows wheelchair users to know which places in their area are accessible), homeless people should be able to easily see on a map where they can get certain help. These include food billboard saver points, free or discounted clothing points, drug counselling centres, homeless assistance, emergency sleeping places, station mission, etc.
