330 .. $a Humans are social animals and, in general, don't thrive in isolated environments.
Homeless people, many of whom suffer from serious mental illnesses, often live socially
isolated on the streets or in shelters. Homelessness, Housing, and Mental Illness
describes a carefully designed large-scale study to assess how well these people do
when attempts are made to reduce their social isolation and integrate them into the
community. -- ; Should homeless mentally ill people be provided with the type of housing
they want or with what clinicians think they need? Is a residential staff necessary?
Are roommates advantageous? How is community integration affected by substance abuse,
psychiatric diagnoses, and cognitive functioning? Homelessness, Housing, and Mental
Illness answers these questions and reexamines the assumptions behind housing policies
that support the preference of most homeless mentally ill people to live alone in
independent apartments. The analysis shows that living alone reduces housing retention
as well as cognitive functioning, while group homes improve these critical outcomes.
Throughout the book, Russell Schutt explores the meaning and value of community for
our most fragile citizens. --Book Jacket
