Oh boy. I’d agree with others here - he needs to get a job asap. Unless you want him in and out of the shelter system, that’s the only way he’s going to get housing of his own.

Good luck to you OP but I don’t see this ending well to be honest. People don’t often voluntarily part with free housing in my experience. Word to the wise, if you accept any work as payment, he is legally a tenant and you need to give 30 days notice before you can evict him.

Appreciate the words of caution. There is no payment, this is a favor for that reason.

I would add to this, there’s a high probability you don’t know the full story. Good on you for trying to help out, though.

I did help, by posting relevant advice and a corresponding source. What did you do?

Both people here are humans, and if one of them is on the dysfunctional side that relationship can go sour quick

Benefit of the doubt on the person who didn't get kicked out of their housing arrangement and is apparently aimless on how to get housing again.
