Abstract
The text that follows analyses the income and employment creation programs as indispensable and complementary conditions to the policy of provision of housing for homeless people. It is assumed that the creation of conditions for leaving the streets is the primary objective of public policies and that the creation of monetary income makes it possible to maintain the housing and the autonomy that it represents. The diversity of conditions that allow us to have a paid job requires that income and employment programs be modelled considering the differences between the various subgroups that make up the homeless people.
