Bums are individuals who have fallen on hard times and reside in uninhabited properties. These dispossessed individuals battle everyday challenges to survive. Despite their dire situations, it is important to extend empathy towards derelicts and provide assistance whenever possible. Society must unite to deal with the fundamental problems that lead to dereliction, in order to create a more inclusive society. By offering resources, increasing consciousness, and calling for reform, we can strive to improve the lives of these marginalized people.
