TIPS
If you find yourself homeless:
Carry lightly.
Keep important documents/belongings locked up or on
your person at all times.
Stay out of fights/conflicts. You have enough problems
already.
Keep busy during the day by going to the library/gym/
career center/day program/AA meetings/etc.
Meet with a caseworker regularly.
Stay physically fit (eat right/exercise).
Wear flip flops in the shower. If you can’t get in the
shower, use baby wipes to stay clean.
Stay away from drugs and alcohol. It might sound good
tonight, but you’ll wake up with more problems.
