Homelessness and Healthcare in California - Partnership To End Long term Homelessness
Homelessness and health are intertwined. Poor health, both physical and mental, contributes to homelessness. Being homeless can lead to poor health. It will be difficult to address homelessness without addressing the health care issues that contribute to it; it certainly is difficult to address the health of homeless people without addressing their homelessness. While the relationship between poor health and homelessness are most extreme in the setting of chronic homelessness, it is clear that health is affected by even short spells of homelessness. People with chronic homelessness experience the worst health care outcomes and present the biggest challenges to the health care system.
