First published in 1999. This book focuses on the health and health care use of families after they have left the shelter system, with the first three chapters dedicated to a review of relevant literature. The research is based on self-reported data collected during a follow up study of 543 poor New York City mothers who were first interviewed in 1988.
This text analyzes the differences in health care utilization patterns between formerly homeless families and those who had never used the resources of a shelter, and presents policy recommendations in the context of changes in welfare policies and the expansion of Medicaid managed care programmes.
