Did they have the opportunity to keep from ever becoming homeless in the 
first place?

You're right, once you are homeless, it's a bitch to get back on your feet. 
The problem is allowing yourself to become homeless in the first place. 
Whatever the circumstances are that led to being on the streets, there had 
to be a time where the person could have found a menial job which would have 
allowed them to afford a cheap, one room apartment somewhere.
