  • Can Housing First Work for Youth? Stephen Gaetz
    Part C _ Think Pieces 159 Can Housing First Work for Youth? Stephen Gaetz Faculty of Education, York University, Toronto, Canada Canadian Observatory on Homelessness >> Abstract_ Housing First has emerged as an effective and humane approach to addressing homelessness. In spite of the strength of the evidence, questions remain regarding the applicability of Housing First to sub-populations, including youth. The proposed framework for Housing First for Youth outlined here is intended to provide a starting point for communities, policy-makers and practitioners interested in applying the model to adolescents and young adults, recognising that different national and local contexts present both unique challenges but also opportunities. Housing First does not promise or pretend to be the only approach to addressing youth homelessness. However, it can and should become an important intervention that supports, and in turn is supported by, other preventive and early intervention strategies, short term emergency supports, and so on. >> Keywords_ Housing First, youth, key principles Introduction Housing First has emerged as an effective and humane approach to addressing homelessness. Internationally, there has been debate over its potential for adapta- tion and application in different national contexts based on the recognition that social and housing policy varies widely between countries and on concerns about how the concept has been interpreted and implemented. The case for Housing First has been bolstered, however, by a large volume of research that attests to its efficacy, including the highly successful At Home/Chez Soi project from Canada. The breadth and rigour of this research makes Housing First one of the few home- lessness interventions that can be truly deemed a ‘best practice’.

  • Street Children in the Developing World: a Review of Their Condition
    Street Children in the Developing World: A Review of Their Condition Lewis Aptekar San Jose State University The article reviews the literature on street children and points out why there are street children in certain cultures and not in others. The reasons for their existence are related to poverty, abuse, and modernizing factors. Street children are defined and distinguished from working and refugee children. Details about the family structure of street children are given. How the children cope and their level of psychological functioning are discussed. The article gives reasons for why the children are treated with such violence and gives attention to methodological research problems that include the children's ability to distort information, the researcher's proclivity to under- or overestimate the children's emotional condition, distortions of facts created by the press and international organizations, and general cross-cultural research issues. For the last decade, I have been studying children. I view them as both needy and bold, and I have seen them in streets that have increasingly become both theatre and war zone. Observing the children and how people have reacted to them not only has forced me to think about growing up without the security of parental love but has made me contemplate the potential rewards of life without parental restraint. My ambivalent thoughts and feelings are to some extent similar to the way the children are treated by the public. Some people see the children as being worthy of the valor given to heroic survivors, while others afford them the pity due the neglected and abused.

Every street child has a reason for being on the streets. While some children are lured by the promise of excitement and freedom, the majority are pushed onto the street by desperation and a realisation that they have nowhere else to go. In many countries, street children are named after their main survival activities. For example, vendors (Dakar, Lusaka and Manila), street gangs (Stuttgart), juvenile prostitutes (Stuttgart, Manila). What is obvious is that street children are poverty-stricken and their needs and problems are a result of wanting to meet basic needs for survival.

Is a House Always a Home?: A Survey of Homelessness Laws By: Marlei English1 March 6, 2020 Homelessness is a plague that spares no country, yet not a single country has cured it. The type of legislation regarding homelessness in a country seems to correlate with the severity of its homelessness problem. The highly-variative approaches taken by each country when passing their legislation can be roughly divided into two categories: aid-based laws and criminalization laws. Analyzing how these homelessness laws affect the homeless community in each country can be an important step in understanding what can truly lead to finding the “cure” for homelessness rather than just applying temporary fixes. I. Introduction to the Homelessness Problem Homelessness is not a new issue, but it is a current, and pressing issue.2 In fact, it is estimated that at least 150 million individuals are homeless.3 That is about two percent of the population on Earth.4 Furthermore, an even larger 1.6 billion individuals may be living without adequate housing.5 While these statistics are startling, the actual number of individuals living without a home could be even larger because these are just the reported and observable numbers.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 I V|£:S H S f <§195 I O I S S 4 -7 ABSTRACT The thesis argues that homelessness is complex and synergical in nature. It discusses the life events and processes that often trigger, protect against and predict the likelihood of someone becoming homeless (and/or roofless). It argues, that people’s routes into homelessness are complex, multiple and interlinked and are the result of biographical, structural and behavioural factors. This complexity increases with the age of the individual and the duration of their rooflessness. The thesis explores the homeless culture as a counter-culture created through people being pushed out of mainstream society. It argues, that what happened to people in the past, created the nature of the homeless culture. Furthermore it is argued that any serious attempt at resettling long-term rough sleepers needs to consider what it is that the homeless culture offers and whether or how this can be replicated within housed society.
