Temporary and permenant housing?

Where I live, temporary housing is just that. Perhaps during the loss of a home due to fire or flooding, a family needs an immediate place to stay. Not necessarily a place that is in the right location or big enough to fit their family, but a place that all can be together. During tragedies, closeness of family being together can give children a stable feeling in an unstable situation. These places that they are allowed to stay are simply a stopping off point to getting in another location, therefor they are considered temporary, until a permanent location can be found. That is why there is a need for both. During floods and fires there is not always enough housing to fulfill the needs that are present. Some government agency are equipped with camping type trailers that can be moved to the required locations quickly to fulfill these needs. If you, or someone that you know has never been in one of these situations, that everything you own, or know as home, is suddenly gone, you maybe can't appreciate the temporary housing situation. Most communities have workers that are available to help try and find you more permanent housing once the sudden state of emergency has ped. Relocating into a permanent housing is important to the stability to the family structure, to rebuild the security that is then found in someplace that you know will be home.
