Homelessness: Rates, Causes, Conflicts and Solutions
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing the rates, causes, conflicts and possible solutions to homelessness in America. The issue of homelessness within the United States has been studied from many different perspectives. From one perspective, homelessness is seen as a very serious problem which must be overcome from a national initiative to combat poverty and create affordable housing. Studies over the past three decades have tried to determine the main causes of homelessness in America and what solutions can be used to decrease the number of homeless people in the country. From another perspective, urban planners, politicians and those within the justice system often deal with homelessness as a problem which must be removed to accomplish urban renewal projects and many policies towards the homeless have actually become “increasingly punitive, ranging from Welfare reform (effectively reducing program funding and changing the eligibility requirements) to NIMBY (not-in-my-back-yard) tactics such as anti-camping, anti-panhandling, and zoning ordinances created to remove homeless populations and facilities from specific locations”. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
