The present secondary analysis of a survey of SGM adults living in the Southeastern U.S. in 2016 (N = 427) assessed factors associated with report of past or current homelessness, which was endorsed by 17% of participants. Congruent with our hypotheses, past socioeconomic status (SES), current SES, mental health, and race were all significant predictors and accounted for 50.5% of variance in homelessness in this population. Discrimination and housing access difficulties did not account for a significant portion of variance over and above these factors. Factors contributing to poverty and psychological distress are needed to address housing disparities for SGM adults. Discrimination factors may have become more salient since 2016. Future research is warranted to better support SGM individuals, particularly those living in the South.KEYWORDS: Homelessnesshousing instabilitytransgenderrisk factorssexual and gender minorities Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementData are available upon reasonable request made to the senior author.Additional informationFundingRyan E.

This study compared experiences and lessons learned from three models of homeless shelters in a small town in rural Ontario: a church, motel, and warming center. Methods: Qualitative interviews were conducted with 17 individuals who stayed in or administered any of three emergency shelters that ran between 2019 and 2022. Results: Participants described challenges resulting from insufficient structure, policies, partnerships, funding, and training that led the church and motel shelters to be unsustainable. The warming center had more sustainable funding but lacked supports and had short operating hours. Several aspects of participants’ experiences were unique to the rural context, including the lack of infrastructure, precarity of services, and feelings of being surveilled and pushed out of their community. Informal supports and a sense of connection to their hometown meant most had no intention of leaving. Conclusion: The strengths of each model and lessons learned offer opportunities to improve and adapt emergency shelters to the rural context.KEYWORDS: Rural homelessnessemergency shelterslived experiencehealth and social services‌sustainability AcknowledgementsI’d like to acknowledge the support of all the participants who shared their experiences with me so that others might benefit from the lessons they’ve learned, and the North Hastings Community Trust that helped with recruitment and offered space for several interviews.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementThe data underlying this article cannot be shared publicly to maintain privacy of individuals that participated in the study.

Between November 2020 and April 2022, 231 PSH residents from Quebec (Canada) were interviewed. Patient profiles were identified with Cluster Analysis based on the participants’ sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, and service use were compared (p < 0.05). Three QoL profiles were identified, with 62% of sample reporting QoL deterioration. Profile 1 (26% of sample) included middle-aged men living mostly in congregate PSH since 5 + years, having high social support, few health problems, and perceiving low deterioration of their health conditions and QoL. Profile 2 (44%) included residents living in PSH less than 2 years, with low social support, highly affected by serious mental disorders, few by COVID-19, perceiving deterioration of their mental health conditions and QoL. Profile 3 (30%) included younger residents living in congregate PSH for 2–5 years, with low social support, high health problems, and perceived deterioration of health conditions and QoL. The study underlined the importance of sustaining housing and care access in a pandemic context for individuals with the most unmet needs, more at risk of QoL deterioration.KEYWORDS: Quality of life deteriorationCOVID-19 pandemicPermanent supportive housingProfilesCluster analysis AcknowledgementsAuthor contributions: MJF designed the overall research project and was responsible for data collection.
