Santrauka:
Šiais laikais benamystė yra itin sparčiai auganti ir skaudžiai mūsų visuomenę veikianti problema. Ją spręsti pasaulyje buvo bandoma įvairiais būdais. Tačiau bene labiausiai pasitvirtinęs būdas yra nakvynės namų steigimas. Apie nakvynės namų teikiamas paslaugas, bei naudą yra kalbama labai plačiai, tačiau apie tai kokia yra socialinio darbuotojo veikla dirbant su nakvynės namų paslaugų gavėjais kalbama labai mažai.
