Synopsis: Although homeness is a serious social problem in the United States, there is little direct information about the actual experiences of violence, past and current, among home people. This volume, based on the Florida Four-City Study, brings together interview material from 737 women, including structured quantitative interviews as well as in-depth qualitative interviews. The authors investigate how many home women have experienced violence in their lives, either as children or as adults, and then examine factors associated with experiences of violence, the consequences of violence, and types of interactions of home people with the justice system. The volume concludes with pragmatic and compassionate policy recommendations.
