For youth, homelessness can be the result of running away from family conflict, family poverty, domestic violence, being put out of their homes, or loss of resources after aging out of state programs like foster care. The aim of this essay is to discuss the common paths to homelessness for adults, youth, and survivors of domestic violence as well as the associated health outcomes related to homelessness in relation to health equity and the social determinants of health. Additionally, this piece identifies existing disparities in homelessness, highlights Delaware resources, and seeks ways that Delaware can end involuntary homelessness in Delaware. Homelessness disproportionately affects minority populations more than other groups and has direct adverse health consequences on these populations. The poor health outcomes linked to homelessness can be many, co-occurring, and lifelong. If social determinants continue to be lacking, homelessness can become chronic. Homelessness is a prevalent public health issue in Delaware. With a health equity lens, state and community resources and solutions can be applied to help reduce homelessness and its disparities.","PeriodicalId":72774,"journal":{"name":"Delaware journal of public health","volume":"9 2","pages":"74-79"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/86/6b/djph-92-013.PMC10445609.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10075680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Poverty rates by race and ethnic background show disparities. Black Delaware residents were more than twice as likely to live in poverty as white Delawareans, with poverty rates of 17.8% and 8.4%, respectively, while Asian individuals had a poverty rate of 10.5%. Hispanic or Latino/x individuals of any race were the most likely to experience poverty and had a five-year average poverty rate of 18.2%. Tracking the overall poverty rate (most commonly through the American Community Survey 5-Year Averages) is valuable when studying trends over time but lacks the power to display the true economic status of individuals and families. Access: work, income supports, shelter, food, and healthcare all complete each whole person. Level of access within each of these sectors of life determines well-being, and varies based on race and ethnic background, geography, and age. A new challenge is now faced as the Public Health Emergency (PHE) has ended, repealing a multitude of supports with the risk of putting individuals and families into a new phase of crisis.","PeriodicalId":72774,"journal":{"name":"Delaware journal of public health","volume":"9 2","pages":"44-49"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/08/6a/djph-92-009.PMC10445607.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10058121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There does not appear to be any literature on social capital through online social media and its association with healthcare access such as healthcare practitioner visits. This paper studies the relationship between social capital through online social media use and healthcare practitioner visits. Methods: Data were analyzed from 663 participants in New York City in 2017 with exposure to social media prescription medication advertisements from social media (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube). The main predictor variable was visiting a healthcare practitioner at least once a year. Outcome variables were bonding social capital and bridging social capital from online social media. Results: Those who visited a healthcare practitioner at least once a year had greater mean bonding social capital and bridging social capital from online social media than those who did not visit a healthcare practitioner at least once a year. Multivariate linear regression analyses showed a similar pattern for not visiting a healthcare practitioner at least once a year (bonding social capital: b=-5.31, SE=1.68, p=0.002; bridging social capital: b=-3.27, SE=1.55, p=0.04). Conclusions: Government organizations, healthcare practitioners, and healthcare organizations should continue marketing and disseminating health education for young adults through online social media. This public health online social media health education is likely to be considered bonding social capital and/or bridging social capital by young adults and this may be associated with more young adults visiting healthcare practitioners at least once a year.","PeriodicalId":72774,"journal":{"name":"Delaware journal of public health","volume":"9 2","pages":"122-128"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/27/48/djph-92-023.PMC10445612.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10069754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Those barriers - financial, physical, and cultural in nature - have been exacerbated by the COVID-19 public health emergency and the related, or co-occurring, shifts that have characterized the housing market in the United States, and Delaware specifically, over these last three years. In this brief introductory research report, we examine the system of housing supports and their availability to individuals with IDD through a subset of those served by the state's Division of Developmental Disabilities Services through interviews with representatives across the housing support system. Our findings fall into four areas of work: scale and scope; housing availability; housing assistance; and housing supports. We find that: the estimated scale of the housing crisis (in terms of homelessness and insecurity) affecting this population is much greater than the general population, but in line with other national estimates for individuals with IDD; there is limited available housing that is accessible to individuals with IDD available in the state; there is limited assistance available for navigating the housing that might be available; and that there are too few options for providing more supports for individuals living, or trying to live, independently. We conclude with a few suggested recommendations that could provide more reliable data and tracking of need and a call for research that connects housing for individuals with IDD into the growing body of research looking at the relationship between access to housing and health.","PeriodicalId":72774,"journal":{"name":"Delaware journal of public health","volume":"9 2","pages":"30-33"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/52/5a/djph-92-007.PMC10445611.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10069755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
