Sociology: Homelessness

Abstract: 5 pages in length. With the 1980's nationwide estimates of total homeless population ranging "from 2-3 million for advocacy groups and social scientific estimates of 300,000-500,000" (Hewitt, 1996, p. 431), it is clear to see how there is much more to the notion of homelessness than merely a collection of social deviants. The writer provides insight and statistics to the homeless problem. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
