“Women and families represent the fastest growing groups of the homeless population nationally. Approximately half of the homeless population are families with children. Among homeless families, 90 percent are female-headed. However, at least 85% of all homeless are men and homeless families are rare. If a young single-mother is responsible for raising her child or children without familial support and material resources typically heads a homeless family.” – Reference 2013) – WUNRN hopes for an update on this information.
