Description
"The rural homeless are often overlooked in the social sciences literature, and this book has been designed to fill that void. This groundbreaking text examines the lives of today's rural homeless as well as U.S. policy and research methodologies for studying this unique population. The book offers useful, research-based approaches to change the difficult situation that the rural homeless face. With specific case examples, it highlights the problems facing this population and shows how a family health-based approach can help. Micro- and macro-level intervention approaches make this text ideal for classroom use as well as enlightening for frontline professionals."--Jacket.
