The Abbé Pierre Foundation (FAP) has warned that homelessness and terrible living circumstances are rising in France. The nonprofit estimates 330,000 homeless persons in France in its annual study, released on Wednesday. This is 30,000 more than the previous year and a 130% rise over 2012, the date of the most recent INSEE research on the issue. The study also addresses the government and the "inadequacy" of its efforts to address the problem. That is why discussing homelessness with children in French schools is critical. In online sessions on the LiveXP platform, you may discuss homelessness with the French tutor online.
