Скачать или смотреть Dr. Bernie Pauly: Are all people who experience homelessness street-involved?

In this video Dr. Bernadette [Bernie] Pauly explains that there are a diverse range of ways in which people experience homelessness, with some being more visible than others. She draws upon the Canadian definition of homelessness, which includes people who are unsheltered and visibly sleeping in public places like doorways, alleys, and parks, as well as people who may be in emergency shelters, provisional accommodations, or at-risk of homelessness. Dr. Pauly concludes by noting that media depictions are part of the issue. They commonly portray narrow stereotypes of homelessness as someone sleeping on a sidewalk, rather than showing more complex circumstances such as someone living in a shelter and going to work every day.

This video was recorded in 2021, as part of a series, for the project “Understanding Homelessness in Canada: From the Street to the Classroom.” (https://ecampusontario.pressbooks.pub...)
