When you think of the word destitute, which means poor or lacking other necessities of life, it refers to those who are in desperate straits. Living on the streets, the destitute are dying without having any means to lead a life on their own. They are found lying on streets without having any physical and mental wellness. They are found to be filled with dust without having any primary care and not being able to lead a life. They are treated as anti-social with no ability to lead a life of dignity. What they need is shelter, protection, health care services and more importantly counseling delivered with affection and encouragement.
