Le Gîte Ami is a homeless shelter in Hull. Since 1983, homeless persons are provided with temporary shelter for up to seven days per month. During this period, they may obtain meals without headaches and, have access to housing research resources and also obtain income, particularly through employment. The provision of temporary shelter is based on a perspective emphasizing self-empowerment and therefore aims at encouraging these individuals in their own efforts at reintegration into society. In a family atmosphere, these persons may therefore regain their strength and create bonds, both of which are essential for getting off the street. 2, record 1, English, - Le%20G%C3%AEte%20Ami

Situé à Hull, Le Gîte Ami est un refuge pour les sans-abri. Depuis 1983, les personnes itinérantes peuvent y loger pour une période de sept jours par mois. Cette période leur permet de se nourrir sans casse-tête tout en ayant accès à des ressources pour trouver un endroit où loger et de l'argent pour vivre, notamment par l'accès au travail. L'offre d'un refuge temporaire s'inscrit dans une perspective de prise en charge et vise ainsi à encourager ces gens dans la poursuite des démarches individuelles de réinsertion sociale. Dans un climat familial, ces personnes peuvent donc se refaire des forces et créer des liens, deux éléments essentiels pour sortir de la rue. 2, record 1, French, - Le%20G%C3%AEte%20Ami
