Description
Hundreds of thousands of Americans are without a home, sleeping on streets or in temporary shelters.
Nearly one-fifth of homeless Americans suffer from an untreated mental illness.
Due in part to reductions in state and city budgets, many who need assistance are left to live on the street.
One natural byproduct of a life on the street is criminal behavior, as adaptation to illegal acts becomes a matter of survival.
Could ending homelessness reduce crime? What are ways in which that could be achieved, and whose responsibility is it?
Are the homeless being unfairly blamed for street crime?
This volume offers a close examination of the issue from a variety of viewpoints.
