Women Rough Sleepers in Europe : Homelessness and Victims of Domestic Abuse, Hardback Book

Women Rough Sleepers in Europe : Homelessness and Victims of Domestic Abuse Hardback

Hardback

Description

Women's rough sleeping is a major issue across Europe and is especially problematic within the current economic climate.

Based on a European Union DAPHNE III-funded project, this important book tells the story of the women and organisations that took part in the study.

Revealing a number of truths about women's rough sleeping across Europe, the authors argue that there is little or no specific provision for this vulnerable and hard to reach group.

The book focuses on the adoption of effective policy, strategies and services to meet the needs of homeless women, specifically women rough sleepers who are the victims of domestic abuse.

It will be a valuable resource for academics and students of criminology, social policy, law, social work and probation, as well as housing/homelessness practitioners, policy makers, local authorities and NGOs.
