1 Testing a Typology of Homelessness across Welfare Regimes. An analysis of Shelter Use in Denmark compared to the US Lars Benjaminsen
2 Can Kuhn & Culhanes typology of homelessness be applied in a different type of welfare state? What does the pattern look like in Scandinavia? Kuhn and Culhane (1998): Transitionally homeless: few and short shelter stays poverty and housing affordability problems Episodically homeless: many and short shelter stays frequent moves between shelters, rough sleeping, hospitalisation and incarceration Chronically homeless: few and long shelter stays complex support needs 2
3 Stephens and Fitzpatrick (2007) hypothesis a) Countries with extensive welfare systems and a lower level of poverty and social inequality tend to have a lower level of homelessness than countries with less extensive welfare systems and a higher level of povery and inequality b) Homelessness in countries with extensive welfare systems is more likely to be concentrated amongst individuals with complex support needs such as mental illness and substance abuse, whereas homelessness in countries with less extensive welfare systems is more likely to result from poverty and housing affordability problems. 3
4 Welfare regime and statistics US Denmark Welfare regime Liberal Social democratic Poverty rate (OECD definition under 50 pct of median income) Public social expenditure pct of GNP Pct. social housing of total housing stock
5 Hypotheses 1) The overall level of shelter use is lower in Denmark than in the US. 2) The composition of shelter users is different in Denmark and the US: -The group of transitionally homeless is relatively smaller in Denmark -Shelter users in Denmark to a higher extent have complex support needs than in the US 5
6 Data Individual data from Danish homeless shelters (nationwide client registration system) linked to administrative register data on demographics, health etc. -number of shelter stays -lenght of shelter stays -diagnosed mental illness -diagnosed drug abuse -diagnosed alcohol abuse -prison sentence 6
7 Overall annual prevalence of shelter use in Denmark and the US (Percent of total population) (US:Annual Assessment Report to Congress) Year Denmark US
8 Cluster statistics for 3-cluster model, Denmark compared to NYC Transitional Episodical Chronical Total Denmark Percentage of clients (25,326) Average no. of episodes Average no. of days Average days per episode Percentage of client days New York City (Kuhn & Culhane (1998, p. 219) Percentage of clients (73,263) Average no. of episodes Average no. of days Average days per episode Percentage of client days
9 Complex support needs Transitional Episodical Chronical Total Denmark Mental illness (MI) Substance abuse (SA) MI or SA New York City (Kuhn & Culhane) Mental illness (MI) Substance abuse (SA) MI or SA
10 Conclusion a) Overall prevalence of homeless shelter use is lower in Denmark about one third the level in the US b) Size of the three groups transitional, episodical and chronical homeless are remarkably similar in Denmark and US Divergence: In Denmark all three groups have a high rate with mental illness and/or substance abuse - in the US this rate is much lower among the transitionally homeless 10
