Homelessness among women is a major issue across Europe, especially in the current climate of weak economies and government austerity. The first book to concentrate specifically on women’s homelessness, this book draws on data from an EU-funded study that looked at homeless women sleeping on the streets across the European Union. Arguing that there are currently little or no specific provisions for helping this vulnerable and hard-to-reach group, the authors offer a close look at what effective policies might be, what strategies and services could be deployed, and, in particular, how governments might address the more complicated needs of homeless women who have suffered from domestic abuse. | Women Rough Sleepers In Europe by Kate Moss, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
