Housing The Homeless

Abstract: The romantic notion of the 'hobo' continues as an American myth and colors the perception of what being homeless means. It is true that there are those who choose this lifestyle and prefer the life of transience and day to day living. For most, however, it is not a matter of choice but of necessity. Many of these homeless people are parents and their children. Children, in fact, make up a quarter of the homeless population. This 9 page paper explores the etiology of homelessness, the programs directed at eradicating this problem and concludes with suggestions on what can be done in the future. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
