What comes to mind for me is how lepers used to be shunned from society. It might not be easy to write about because it doesn't really happen today but it used to be that people with leprosy were unclean meaning no one was allowed to touch them. Lepers also were sent away to their own villages or separate islands. I don't know if this gave you any ideas at all. If you want something less serious you could have some criminal that lives off the grid so they can't be caught.
