Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first collection of original essays on the topic of elderly shared housing. The approach is multidisciplinary and reflects a rare combination of applied and academic analyses. The focus is on agency-assisted shared housing, a form of shared housing in which a homesharing agency matches a homeprovider, usually an elderly person with room to spare in his or her home and often with needs for assistance, with a homeseeker, usually a younger adult who seeks an inexpensive living arrangement. With the increasing scarcity of moderate- and low-income housing in many regions of the nation and the increasing costs of formal community-based services for the elderly, such homesharing options are becoming increasingly attractive for old and young alike. The first section of the book includes four introductory essays. The goals of this section are to provide a broad descriptive analysis of the history, growth, and current issues facing the shared housing movement, to consider both the urban and rural environments as contexts for shared housing programs, and to offer an overview of shared housing research. The second section contains three chapters which offer regionally specific perspectives on the development of shared housing programs. These include the states of Michigan, California, and the Canadian province of Ontario. Each chapter decribes the issues in service delivery system development within their particular geographic boundaries. The final section of the book contains six case studies of homesharing programs. They are located in Burlington, Vermont, Madison and Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Wichita, Kansas, and San Jose and Orange County, California. Most emphasize the organizational characteristics and dynamics of the programs, and some present qualitative and quantitative data on homesharing matches. A theme running through the analyses is the fact that community level variables influence the organizational form of the homesharing agency as well as the kinds of clients who are likely candidates for homesharing in particular communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Drawing on research from interviews with young adults in a range of settings, Shared Housing and Young Adults is the first to provide insight into the psychology of young adult house sharing with a focus on the broad dynamics of co-residence, interpersonal relationships and young people's development. Beginning with an overview of the concept and history of house sharing among young adults, Clark and Tuffin's volume also examines reasons for the lack of research into the area up until recently. It explores key questions including how young adults choose housemates, what makes a desirable housemate, avoiding complications, the psychological advantages of house sharing, how conflict arises, and impact of house sharing on adult development. The authors challenge myths fostered by stereotypes and the stigma of shared domesticity, demonstrating the potential of house sharing to enhance well-being through companionship whilst acknowledging the potential pitfalls caused by tension in intimate settings. Shared Housing Among Young Adults will be essential reading for both undergraduate and postgraduate students of social psychology, developmental psychology, sociology, and anthropology, as well as those interested in group dynamics, housing, and discrimination"--

Book excerpt: Informal shared housing refers to a range of accommodations where at least one member of a household is not on a lease and has no other formal housing protections-capturing situations like couch hopping, doubling up, informal hosting, and informal kinship care. In the U.S., many young adults and unaccompanied youth facing housing instability rely on informal shared housing for a place to stay. Some youth stay with people they know and trust, like extended family, friends' parents, mentors, or romantic partners. Given the current housing affordability crisis and barriers to housing access for many youth and young adults, formal and informal shared housing is a critical part of our community response to youth homelessness. However, prior research has established that informal shared housing, especially shorter-term arrangements, can have negative impacts on youth. Current advocacy and practice tends to approach shorter-term informal shared housing as a liability, with few services designed to address challenges and instability in these arrangements. Youth homelessness prevention programs often focus on nuclear families, missing the needs of longer-term informal shared housing with extended family or other natural supports. This dissertation project reframes safe informal shared housing as a community asset and a form of care work. I propose that instability and risk are not inherent to informal shared housing, and that structural inequities have played a role in eroding informal housing safety nets-particularly in families and communities of color. Drawing on interviews with youth and informal hosts, I highlight how individual, interpersonal, material, and structural challenges contribute to instability in informal shared housing. I extend these findings to identify promising policy, program, and practice changes that could stabilize and, when appropriate, formalize safe informal shared housing. This project paints a more complete picture of instability in safe informal shared housing and makes the case that family and other natural supports can and should be part of our efforts to prevent and address youth homelessness.

Book excerpt: With a growing population, rising housing costs and housing providers struggling to meet demand for affordable accommodation, more and more people in the UK find themselves sharing their living spaces with people from outside of their families at some point in their lives. Focusing on sharers in a wide variety of contexts and at all stages of the life course, Shared Housing, Shared Lives demonstrates how personal relationships are the key to whether shared living arrangements falter or flourish. Indeed, this book demonstrates how issues such as finances, domestic space and daily routines are all factors which can impact upon personal relationships and wider understandings of the home and privacy. By directing attention towards people and relationships rather than bricks and mortar, Shared Housing, Shared Lives is essential reading for students and researchers in fields such as sociology, housing studies, social policy, cultural anthropology and demography, as well as for researchers and practitioners working in these areas

Book excerpt: PARENTING NEVER ENDS. From the founders of the #1 site for parents of teens and young adults comes an essential guide for building strong relationships with your teens and preparing them to successfully launch into adulthood The high school and college years: an extended roller coaster of academics, friends, first loves, first break-ups, driver’s ed, jobs, and everything in between. Kids are constantly changing and how we parent them must change, too. But how do we stay close as a family as our lives move apart? Enter the co-founders of Grown and Flown, Lisa Heffernan and Mary Dell Harrington. In the midst of guiding their own kids through this transition, they launched what has become the largest website and online community for parents of fifteen to twenty-five year olds. Now they’ve compiled new takeaways and fresh insights from all that they’ve learned into this handy, must-have guide. Grown and Flown is a one-stop resource for parenting teenagers, leading up to—and through—high school and those first years of independence. It covers everything from the monumental (how to let your kids go) to the mundane (how to shop for a dorm room). Organized by topic—such as academics, anxiety and mental health, college life—it features a combination of stories, advice from professionals, and practical sidebars. Consider this your parenting lifeline: an easy-to-use manual that offers support and perspective. Grown and Flown is required reading for anyone looking to raise an adult with whom you have an enduring, profound connection.

Book excerpt: What if your roommate is your soul mate? A joyful, quirky romantic comedy, Beth O'Leary's The Flatshare is a feel-good novel about finding love in the most unexpected of ways. Tiffy and Leon share an apartment. Tiffy and Leon have never met. After a bad breakup, Tiffy Moore needs a place to live. Fast. And cheap. But the apartments in her budget have her wondering if astonishingly colored mold on the walls counts as art. Desperation makes her open minded, so she answers an ad for a flatshare. Leon, a night shift worker, will take the apartment during the day, and Tiffy can have it nights and weekends. He’ll only ever be there when she’s at the office. In fact, they’ll never even have to meet. Tiffy and Leon start writing each other notes – first about what day is garbage day, and politely establishing what leftovers are up for grabs, and the evergreen question of whether the toilet seat should stay up or down. Even though they are opposites, they soon become friends. And then maybe more. But falling in love with your roommate is probably a terrible idea...especially if you've never met.

This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Homeless young adults represent a failure of the U.S. social services system to prevent new generations of homeless people. However, several organizations are working in concert with communities and governments to combat this problem through transitional housing programs that target young adults ages 18 to 24. Many of these programs mirror the new urban development trend of mixed-income housing, and place transitional houses inside stable neighborhoods that are either affluent or mixed-income themselves. While these programs represent monumental commitments in terms of resources, they also represent hope for many young adults. The sense of community these young-adult residents feel toward their neighborhoods and programs have lasting effects on the residents’ abilities to find normalcy inside the American culture through access to education, safety, and employment. This study examines the YMCA Young Adult Services Program (serving the greater Seattle area) for transitional housing, exploring how the program works and what is residents’ psychological sense of community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the minds of the general public, young people and crime are intrinsically linked; wide-spread belief persists that such activities are a result of the ‘permissive 1960s’ and the changing face of the traditional nuclear family. Roger Hopkins Burke challenges these preconceptions and offers a detailed and comprehensive introduction to youth crime and the subsequent response from the criminal justice system. This extended and fully updated new edition explores: The development of young people and attempts to educate, discipline, control and construct them, Criminological explanations and empirical evidence of why young people become involved in criminality, The system established by the Youth Justice Board, its theoretical foundations, and the extent of its success, Alternative approaches to youth justice around the globe and the apparent homogenisation throughout the neoliberal world. The second edition also includes new chapters looking at youth justice in the wider context of social policy and comparative youth justice. Young People, Crime and Justice is the perfect undergraduate critical introduction to the youth justice system, following a unique left-realist perspective while providing a balanced account of the critical criminology agenda, locating the practical working of the system in the critical socio-economic context. It is essential reading for students taking modules on youth crime, youth justice and contemporary social and criminal justice policy. Text features include key points, chapter summaries and review questions.

Biographische, räumliche, ökonomische und politische Aspekte spielen dabei eine Rolle. Es geht um Gründe für das unterschiedliche Auszugsalter und um gesellschaftliche Faktoren, die gegen eine psychologisch verkürzende Interpretation des "Nesthockerphänomens" sprechen, um Besonderheiten des Wohnens junger Männer und Frauen sowie um Unterschiede hinsichtlich Familienstand, Bildung, Einkommen und Wohnregion. Strukturelle Hemmnisse und Barrieren junger Menschen auf dem Wohnungsmarkt werden dargestellt.
