Homeless Health

Famous quotes containing the words homeless and/or health:

    “Once again, we’ve wasted time and money by dealing with the homeless backward. Too much energy has gone into deciding where we do not want them to be, and making sure that they would not be there.”
    —Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    “The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
    —Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
