The first recognized homeless shelter in the United States was established in 1730 in Philadelphia, known as the "House of Industry." This institution aimed to provide shelter and assistance to the poor and homeless. Over the years, various forms of shelters emerged, but the concept of dedicated facilities for the homeless became more widespread in the 19th and 20th centuries as urban poverty increased.
