Description

This book focuses on homelessness in the United States, with comparisons to other developed countries in societies with the resources to end homelessness. It seeks to shift understanding of the phenomenon of homelessness away from issues of individual disability and embed it in larger contexts of poverty, income inequality, housing affordability, and social exclusion. It attempts to guide policy makers and the public in efforts to prevent and end homelessness.
