You could help her find a place and a job but I would not let her move in because that could cause problems in your relationship.

No, you should act as a friend and help her get her life in order. Get her in contact with a shelter and an agency to help her gain employment. If she is homeless due to drugs or alcohol get her help. If you just take her in it will not give her the tools to improve her life and it will put a huge strain on your friendship. (I have done this in the past and lost a lot of money and lost the friend)

Consider why she is homeless. Check into agencies in your area that can assist. If you care about her, and you could live with her, consider it, but give her a time frame of how long she can stay and what you expect from her-like help with dishes, looking for a job, etc. Consider it very carefully-it is very difficult to ask someone to leave when they have no means of support. Exhaust all other possibilities first. Offer to help her look for a job, etc, and if she needs to use your address for mail, tell her to put it c/o your name and address.

Can you afford to support another person? IS she willing to work to pay her way? Is she actively seeking employment or living off welfare of others?
These are justa coupe of immediate questions that come to mind. You really need to decide for yourself if you can handle the responsibility of another person in your home and what that will entail. If you can afford it and dont see any major issues like fear of being robbed or taken advantage of, then I would suggest giving it a try. But think long and hard about your own reasons for allowing her and reasons for not allowing her and see which ones feel right to you

First of all, how old is your friend, does he/she have a job. Is this friend responsible, paying their bills? If not, you might end up with a lot of debt that you didn't expect.
This person, if responsible, should have a job, or be looking for one.I don't know all of the details about your friend, so if you're a Christian, pray about it. There are many jobs out there, they may not be perfect but it will be a living.

why is she homeless ? is it circumstances beyond her control?
does she have a job and will she contribute to the home?
Does she have a problem with drinking or drugs that is contributing to her housing problem? These are things you need to consider. Dont let your heart rule your head in this situation.

That's a tough choice. But No. She'll be more motivated to find a job and 'make it on her own' that way. If you do, she may never move out or pay you rent. I know its harsh, but you gotta look at the reality.

Yes, if she is your friend. Get her on a plan to get her life straightened out (whether that means pursuing a job, academics, repairing family relations, etc.).
Don't let her in if she is Dupree though, two is company, Dupree is a crowd.
