The Barbados Alliance to End Homelessness (BAEH) has seen a 30 per cent increase in the number of people living on the streets over the past two years and a drastic shift in the reasons people have no fixed place of abode.In an interview with Barbados TODAY, BAEH president Kemar Saffrey said he was worried about the recent trends.He explained that the spike in homelessness correlated with many of the negative fallouts from the COVID-19 pandemic, such as increasing unemployment, and what was more disturbing was that more women and children were requesting frequent assistance from his organisation.Saffrey said that years ago, the main root causes of homelessness were drug abuse and mental health issues. However, he said, many more people were out on the streets due to family disputes and unsustainable living conditions.
