Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stride like a Cheetah and Pursue! This book is about a woman who has overcome the trials and tribulations of life. She has exemplified the character as a survivor and an overcomer. She started out as an ordinary woman who enrolled in an institution of higher learning majoring in politics and criminal justice, assisting elected officials in various campaigns, pursuing a government career, government internships and raising two children. Somehow, an interruption of life had occurred and this was the beginning of a change of life. During her homeless journey, she was involved in a bitter custody battle of her two children, the loss of her mother and her government job- simultaneously. Yet she dreamed about her ambitions and goals to bring it into fruition. It was relative to a woman in travail giving birth to an impossible dream. In this book, failing forward is very successful. It may not be evident at the time, however, she offers the remedy to accomplish and achieve whatever you have set your mind to do. Trials + Pursuing = Success Take your trials and use them to your advantage to help someone else. Pursue! Marilyn

Book Homelessness  Health  and Human Needs

Download or read book Homelessness Health and Human Needs written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1988-02-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have always been homeless people in the United States, but their plight has only recently stirred widespread public reaction and concern. Part of this new recognition stems from the problem's prevalence: the number of homeless individuals, while hard to pin down exactly, is rising. In light of this, Congress asked the Institute of Medicine to find out whether existing health care programs were ignoring the homeless or delivering care to them inefficiently. This book is the report prepared by a committee of experts who examined these problems through visits to city slums and impoverished rural areas, and through an analysis of papers written by leading scholars in the field.

Book Young Homeless People and Urban Space

Download or read book Young Homeless People and Urban Space written by Emma Jackson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ethnographic exploration of contemporary spaces of homelessness takes an expanded view of homeless space, threading together experiences of organizational spaces, routes taken through the city and the occupation of public space. Through engaging with participants' accounts of movement and place, the book argues that young homeless people become fixed in mobility, a condition that impacts on both everyday life and possible futures. Based on an innovative multi-method study of a day centre in London for young homeless people, the book contextualizes spaces of homelessness within the social relations and flows of people that produce the world city. The book considers how the biographical and everyday trajectories of young homeless people intersect with place attachments and forms of governance to produce urban homeless spaces. It provides a new angle on the city made by movement, foregrounding the impact of mobilities shaped by loss, violence and the search for opportunity. The book draws on mental maps, photography, interviews and observation in order to produce an engaging and rich ethnographic account of young homeless people in the city.

Book Visible Voices  Literacy and the Invisible Homeless

Download or read book Visible Voices Literacy and the Invisible Homeless written by Melissa M. Juchniewicz, EdD and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-02-07 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who are the “invisible homeless”? They are individuals and families who have been forced into temporary living situations or shelter systems as a result of such conditions as changes in income, domestic violence, health care needs, and shifting housing costs. Unlike the chronically homeless, who are often stereotyped, or the situationally homeless, who may receive emergency assistance regaining their previous lives, the marginally homeless – often called the invisible homeless – get caught in institutional spirals that seem to discourage change. This book, however, provides evidence that an individual’s literacy identity can promote positive transitions out of homelessness. Although the stigma surrounding homelessness provokes silence, the five individuals who took part in this project speak eloquently about their circumstances, their accomplishments, and their intentions. In addition, the book can serve as a how-to for completing a qualitative research project, as the reader is walked through the steps of the research process.

Book The Homeless Person in Contemporary Society

Download or read book The Homeless Person in Contemporary Society written by Cameron Parsell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-23 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The homeless person is thought to be different. Whereas we get to determine our difference or sameness, the homeless person’s difference is imposed upon them and assumed to be known because of their homelessness. Exclusion from housing – either a commodity that should be accessed from the market or social provision – signifies the homeless person’s incapacities and failure to function in what are presented as unproblematic social systems. Drawing on a program of research spanning ten years, this book provides an empirically grounded account of the lives and identities of people who are homeless. It illustrates that people with chronic experiences of homelessness have relatively predictable biographies characterised by exclusion, poverty, and trauma from early in life. Early experiences of exclusion continue to pervade the lives of people who are homeless in adulthood, yet they identify with family and normative values as a means of imaging aspirational futures.
