Helping pediatricians understand youth and family homelessness

Rebecca Ruiz 3/21/1412:00 PM

What it’s about: This article presents a bird’s-eye view of homeless youth and family statistics so that pediatricians can better understand and serve those populations.

Why read it: While the paper is addressed to pediatricians, certain recommendations are relevant to youth and family workers. The author also recommends that doctors collaborate with social workers in order to provide care for families whose lack of stability or strained schedules make it hard to regularly see doctors.
