Description

Explore the deep connection between housing instability and child development in Homelessness and Its Consequences: The Impact on Children's Psychological Well-being. Part of the Children of Poverty series, this Routledge publication examines the specific dynamics of shelter living and the resulting financial and psychological costs to families. By comparing homeless households to low-income families who are housed, this book demonstrates that homelessness itself is a distinct factor in negative outcomes for children. It moves beyond the general concept of poverty to look at how the lack of stable housing affects the family unit. The text provides a clear look at psychological well-being through the lens of behavioral outcomes and self-concept. Readers will gain a better understanding of family functioning, specifically regarding parenting dimensions, the family environment, and social supports. This book offers a detailed look at the realities faced by vulnerable populations and provides strong recommendations for addressing these complex social issues.
