Trauma
Homelessness is traumatic. People experiencing homelessness are living with a multitude of losses. People who are homeless have lost the protection of home and community, and are marginalized, isolated, and stigmatized within the larger society. Additionally, people who are experiencing homelessness are highly vulnerable to violence and victimization. The resources and subtopics in this section provide more information about the linkages between trauma and homelessness.

See also the Trauma-Informed Care topic page to learn more about best practices for serving people who have experienced trauma.
