What is the impact of the internet access for the homeless?

Five ways in which access to the internet could change the life of a homeless person for the better include:
≈ Look for a job
≈ Find suitable accommodation
≈ Find out where free places to stay are located, including soup kitchens
≈ Keeping in touch with friends and family
≈ Take advantage of online learning

The impact of not having access to the internet has on that homeless person is that they are unable to communicate with friends and family and therefore loose touch, they are unable to look for a job without going to the job centre for example. Plus they could miss out on vital information for them, i.e. how they could earn grants or benefits and where they could stay for free or their local soup kitchen for food.

Five things that are more important to that person than the internet include:
≈ Shelter
≈ Food
≈ Clothing
≈ Security
≈ Companionship
