Description
Homeless Children: Problems and Needs provides a comprehensive understanding of the specific challenges faced by this vulnerable group. The book explores the physical, emotional, and behavioural difficulties that homeless children often experience, including health problems, developmental delays, and mental health issues. The authors examine the ways in which conventional services may not be equipped to meet the needs of homeless families, highlighting the need for adapted approaches to support these individuals. This volume offers practical guidance for staff and agencies on recognising and addressing the unique challenges faced by homeless children, as well as insights into policy and service development that can better serve this group. By shedding light on the complex issues surrounding homelessness among children, Homeless Children aims to inform and improve practice in education, health, and social care.
