Shelters for divorced men who have gone bankrupt open in Italy.
It is specified that such men are included in the category of the so-called “new poor”.
As you know, during a divorce in Italy, spouses often remain bankrupt. According to statistics, the result of 60% of divorces is that the general housing goes to the spouse with whom the children remain. In addition, in 94% of cases, ex-husbands are required to pay child support. Moreover, they should do this not only for the child, but also for the ex-wife.
For this reason, shelters are opened with the participation of volunteers or Christian organizations.
Divorced men can stay there for a maximum of a year..
