Case Management Services at Ten Federally Funded Sites Targeting Homeless Children and Their Families

Pages 113-122 | Published online: 15 Jun 2010
 

Abstract

Of the 128 federally funded projects providing health care to homeless people, only 10 specifically target homeless children. In this article we describe these 10 health care for the homeless projects, the case managers, and the children that they serve. Data collected from the case managers and from federal reports demonstrated differences among projects by case manager characteristics, number of children served, and federal funding levels. Case management is a legislatively mandated service for the federally funded homeless children's grantees, but its implementation is very diverse. These different sites illustrate the different ways that a federally funded program has evolved to meet the needs of its community.
