Abstract
Homeless people are marginalized because they lack the resources necessary to participate in mainstream culture. It is not unusual to come across homeless persons in the streets of Quito, Ecuador, particularly in the downtown area. Society often refers to them as the unaccepted, the outcasts, the marginalized, and the homeless. Being a victim of aggressiveness is not an inevitable part of life on the streets. Still, unfortunately, we are seeing more and more instances of it being shown nearly every day. Many groups work to alleviate this problem by providing aid or enhancing the quality of life for these individuals. The goal of this study is to aid in strengthening the work of such institutions by providing a rationale for why so many crimes are decided to commit even against the homeless and how these institutions can better equip themselves to deal with the issue, as well as by providing tasks to assist direct the Homeless toward the Good Having to live Plan. A cognitive map of neutrosophic causes and effects was constructed.
