When children are exposed to homelessness or housing instability their ability to develop and function is compromised. The purpose of this study is to examine the differential impact of homelessness and unstable housing on health and functioning of women and their children over a 2-year period. Two hundred and seventy-seven mothers reporting intimate partner violence (stalking, physical, or sexual violence by an intimate partner) were asked about housing stability, abuse, risk for murder, mental health, employment/wages, and their child's functioning over a 2-year period. Outcomes of mothers reporting homelessness and unstable housing were compared to mothers reporting stable housing. Over one-third (36%) of the mothers reported at least one episode of unstable housing over the 2-year period and 11% reported homelessness. Measures of maternal mental health and child functioning were worse for both unstably housed and homeless women, compared to stably housed women, with a higher risk for sexual abuse and risk for murder for homeless women. New models of rapid rehousing are needed that address not only the housing problems of women who have experienced intimate partner violence but also the mental health and safety issues that the women and their children face.","PeriodicalId":45390,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Distress and the Homeless","volume":"25 1","pages":"86 - 94"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2016-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10530789.2016.1245258","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60195330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objectives: In this critical ethnographic study, power within client–provider relationships in health care with people experiencing homelessness is explored. Methods: Multiple qualitative methods of document analysis, participant observation, interviews, and focus groups were used with both clients and providers in a community clinic for people experiencing homelessness. Data analysis involved individual and team thematic analysis, guided by Lather's (2007, Getting lost: Feminist efforts towards a double(d) science. Albany, NY: SUNY Press) criteria for validity. Results: Caregiving relationships involve a negotiation of power based on the many differences of social location between clients and providers. Both clinic policies and personal practices influence the ways power is asserted, taken, or shared. Conclusions: In discussing the implications for addressing power relations in caregiving relationships, it is highlighted that most work in this area has focused on educating health professionals to assist them to relate in more appropriate ways. More needs to be done to actively address the power differentials inherent in caregiving with people experiencing homelessness, for which the concept of ‘solidarity’ is presented as offering some promise.","PeriodicalId":45390,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Distress and the Homeless","volume":"25 1","pages":"102 - 95"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2016-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10530789.2016.1254862","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60195384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current epidemiological studies of diabetes prevalence among homeless adults have been based mostly on self-report data not supported by clinical assessments. Objectives: To determine the prevalence and risk factors for diabetes mellitus (DM) among homeless veterans in the Veteran Health Administration (VHA). Methods: The sample included 3 464 364 veterans with documented body mass indexes (BMI), 137 720 (4%) of whom had been homeless. Logistic regression models were used to determine the odds of having DM among homeless veterans compared to non-homeless veterans. Bivariate and multi-variate analyses were then used to identify potential risk factors for DM among homeless veterans. Results: The prevalence of DM in homeless veterans was 19%. Homeless veterans with DM, compared to those without it were older, more likely to have a BMI > 40 and more likely to have DM-related co-morbidities. Conclusions: There is a high prevalence of DM among homeless veterans in the VHA compared to previous reports for homeless adults (8%). Tailored approaches to improve access to DM screening, prevention, and treatment could benefit homeless veterans.","PeriodicalId":45390,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Distress and the Homeless","volume":"25 1","pages":"53 - 59"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2016-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10530789.2016.1169722","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60194976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objective: This study was designed to describe the process of developing and testing a measure of stress experienced on the streets suitable for use with this population. Methods: Classical measurement theory was used to develop and evaluate relevance and validity of items in the scale. Results: The total scale content validity index was .95 and the Cronbach’s alpha was .92 in a combined sample of homeless youths (n = 90) and university students (n = 94). The mean scores of the two subsamples were statistically significantly different (t(166) = 4.22, P < .001), supporting construct validity. Factor analysis, using Principal Component Analysis, of data collected from the homeless youths yielded five subscales congruent with content in initial item construction. The subscales were: (1) safety on the streets, (2) housing stability, (3) interpersonal relationships, (4) immediate security and (5) stress about future. Conclusions: The final scale has 27 items suitable for future research with this population.","PeriodicalId":45390,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Distress and the Homeless","volume":"25 1","pages":"11 - 18"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2016-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10530789.2015.1116837","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60194984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
