Young Homeless People

Suzanne Fitzpatrick

"Young Homeless People takes a broad approach to the distressing phenomenon of youth homelessness. While politicians, researchers and the media generally focus on the more 'visibly' homeless - those sleeping rough in city-centres or staying in hostels - this book also considers young homeless people 'hidden' in local communities. It places young people's experiences of homelessness in the context of their biographies as a whole, and includes chapters on their private lives of family and friendship networks and their public lives of school, work and contact with public services."--BOOK JACKET.
