520 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. --
520 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.
