Respuesta :

Answer:C) Someone who is incarcerated

Explanation:

The McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act (Title 42 of the U.S. Code) states that a homeless person is a person who has no stable home or shelter where he or she regularly goes to at night which includes a shelter provided privately or publicly for temporal accommodation or all those places that can not be used for regular accomodation such as parks and camp grounds.

Based on this definition incarcerated individuals can not be considered as homeless.

Incarcerated refer to a person who has been imprisoned in such that they can not escape ; most likely this person is kept under a shelter at all times .
