Does general delivery address = homeless?
I guess there must be different levels or ways to be homeless.

I'll edit with more info: I'm concerned about my ex-step dad. He's a really neat guy (smart, fun, sociable, knowledgeable about politics, current events, history, music) but has issues with authority - and has never really been able to hold down jobs. He had a horrendously hurtful childhood - guess it came from there. Because he's my ex-step dad, it's a little touchy - and I've kept in touch but it's been intermittent. He evades questions about where he lives or what he does during the day (except that he spends a lot of time - everyday - at the public library.). I know he doesn't have many personal possessions (doesn't seem to care about that anyway). He lives in a different state from me. Anyway, I want to send him something to help him out at Christmastime... and he said that his address is "general delivery"... and he checks it 3 times a week and always gets everything just fine.
I think I'll send him a Target gift card - or maybe a visa gift card would be more versatile? I wish I could do more.
