    <Abstract>This paper emphasizes the significance of employing advanced epidemiological perspectives to address homelessness as a critical public health concern. Findings emphasize the crucial role of epidemiological approaches in comprehensively understanding the complexity of homelessness. It highlights the assessment of prevalence, identification of critical risk factors, and the utilization of diverse study designs to explore this complex public health issue. Leveraging epidemiologic data can enhance the effectiveness of interventions aimed at improving the health outcomes of individuals experiencing homelessness. </Abstract>
