Homeless people are one of the most endangered groups of social work. They are multiply marginalized, discriminated in living conditions, financial aid, in the labour market and in supportive relationships. They require crisis intervention due to superimposed problems as a result of which they are in danger of health and life (Olah and coll., 2006). From our experience, we would like to state that there is no way to objectively assess why someone became homeless. Speculation that "it is their fault, they can blame themselves" and so they must help themselves to get off the streets, we consider very unprofessional. None of the people on the street planned to live their lives like this. Those, who has chosen this way of life seemingly freely, responded this way to the uncontrolled living situations such as: divorce, illness (to which belong also addiction), unfavourable social situation and the material need etc.. The causes are fairly well described and well known to the general public. Much less are described obstacles to their return to the intact society.
