Is Shelter a Private Problem?

Mulroy, Elizabeth A.; Ewalt, Patricia L.

Social Work, v41 n2 p125-28 Mar 1996

Discusses proposed changes in housing appropriations by Congress in the fiscal year 1996. Two key factors are missing from the debate: (1) lack of public awareness and vocal constituency for funded projects; and (2) lack of understanding that affordable, safe, nontransient, and habitable housing is fundamental to meeting all basic needs.
