This paper presents the results of a study on homelessness conducted in Moncton, New Brunswick. It addresses two practices that emerged from a series of participant observations: 1) the perspective of workers in organizations dedicated to people in precarious housing situations and 2) the organization of community resources to support this population. The analysis presents how these two practices contribute to the invisibility of homelessness by contributing to the masking and concealment of the phenomenon in a context of quasi-rurality.
