'Hostel' is defined as an establishment that provides inexpensive food and lodging for a specific group of people. I’ve been thinking about that as a possible solution to the homeless situation here in Newfoundland, as well as other places. Hostels themselves would be run by charity organizations, or as a private business. The residents could help pay for their accommodations by working around the complex or getting low-paying jobs using the hostel’s address as theirs.
There are government-owned buildings around the province and country that are derelict. Part of the feasibility study would be to determine the cost of the renovations these structures would need to become a hostel.
