Shelters for Urban Homeless (SUH) address the basic needs of vulnerable populations, ensuring access to safe accommodation, potable drinking water, and essential services. Governed by the DAY-NULM framework, SUHs have evolved through policy milestones emphasizing inclusivity and sustainability. The vision is to make homeless individuals self-reliant and economically integrated. The mission focuses on addressing immediate shelter needs and equipping residents with necessities for dignified living  while empowering them to achieve sustainable livelihoods to re-enter the mainstream economy. This holistic approach reduces dependency, promotes livelihood generation, and aligns with national urban development goals
