Exit from homelessness: Individuals with substance abuse or mental health problems

Article Abstract:

The sociodemographic conditions and the factors influencing the exit of homelessness are examined for three groups of marginalized homeless individuals in Denmark, drug addicts, alcohol abusers, and those with mental health problems. Results reveal that women have a high probability of exceeding homelessness, public debt is related to a lower probability of exit from homelessness, and a lower or moderate number of convictions is related to higher probability of finding a way out from homelessness.
