The health of homeless people in high-income countries: descriptive epidemiology, health consequences, and clinical and policy recommendations
In the European Union, more than 400 000 individuals are homeless on any one night and more than 600 000 are homeless in the USA. The causes of homelessness are an interaction between individual and structural factors. Individual factors include poverty, family problems, and mental health and substance misuse problems.
