Aside from maybe trying to encourage people to just be responsible for their own belongings, I know from my time working in a county-run home for neglected, abused & abandoned children that OSHA standards have to be maintained in ANY business, even if it's non-profit. Just to be able to be a group home, a facility has to be safe and clean. If everyone living there leaves dirty clothes laying around, has stuff strewn across the floors, dirty dishes laying around (yuck!), even just the normal everyday clutter that most of us are accustomed to living with (like my house, w/an open book, scattered notes, drying herbs, magazines, odds & ends & whathaveyou's on every available surface) can put a business in jeopardy of fines & safety violations. Most of these places are subject to unscheduled 'surprise' inspections and they have to be prepared for that all the time.
