As one of the social harms, despite its wide and various dimensions, Rough sleeping (RS) is the result of mutual conflicts and social and economic events, each one of which can expand and increase the degree of this process. Because of these social relationships between people and rough sleepers, as well as their intra-group relationships, different outcomes occur, presented in this paper. This study was conducted on rough sleeping people in Tehran, capital of Iran in 2016 with the main hangouts of the city as Darvazeh Gaar, Sush, Khavaran, Azadeghan, Farahzad, Saadat Abad, Imam Khomeini Shrine, Kuh Sangi, and Khavaran Poorhouse. The incidents of violent reactions, tendency towards false occupations, public and street drug abuse, more evident street life, illicit abortion, or the sale of infants and prostitution in women and men were obtained as the consequences of improper social reaction towards rough sleepers by the community or their own intra-group interactions. In the study, while using qualitative research methods including observation and interviews, information and research results were presented with the systematic method of grounded theory as a model. According to the model information, one can consider more precise planning and policy making to prevent the conversion of this social harm to other types of it.
