Substance abuse and Mental illness
Drug addiction leads to homelessness most of the time for the simple reason that abusers over spend their savings on illegal drugs instead of paying for their rents or mortgages.
At times, substance abuse leads to mental breakdown bringing an abuser to lose their minds leading them to running away from home and not able to find their way back. Sadly, at times their family members do not look for them anymore.
