Introduction
Note: Answers to this question will vary, given the personal example that is requested.
An example of an appropriate answer follows: It is possible to maintain public safety and not criminalize homelessness because the main causes of it are not criminal. The homeless are most often left alone by authorities unless there is a big event in town, or if their activities are reported as problematic.

Explanation of Solution
Answer and explanation
The homeless do not need to be criminalized in order to maintain public safety. The largest cause for homelessness is the cost of housing, followed by poverty and
(Answers to this part of the question will vary, and an example in first-person is offered here):
In my city, the homeless are left alone most of the time and allowed to sit near intersections and ask for money. Many of them sleep under overpasses in small groups for warmth. When there is a big event in town, such as a conference or anytime the media is expected, the police round up the homeless and take them elsewhere for the duration. I think the homeless should be given access to free housing long enough for them to establish an address, which many jobs require, and enough savings to move out or pay subsidized rent rates. This would be a transition from homelessness back into society to remove the stigma attached to their situation.
