Homelessness in Los Angeles has burst its traditional borders. These days, downtown's Skid Row is only the ugly epicenter of a staggering problem that radiates outward for more than one hundred miles. Homelessness has spread to gloomy underpasses and dark side streets, to parks, libraries, and subway platforms, so that there are now more than 50,000 people who lack a regular place to sleep in Los Angeles County. From Long Beach to Hollywood to Beverly Hills to Lancaster, no Angeleno can credibly claim to be unaware of the squalid tent cities, the sprawling encampments, or the despair and misery displayed there. In March 2018, the Editorial Board of the Los Angeles Times published a powerful six-part series describing the problem in this city--one that is mirrored to one degree or another up and down the West Coast, from Portland to San Francisco to San Diego. The editorials explain who LA's homeless people really are and how they got there, call for changes in policy toward the mentally ill, and urge weak-kneed politicians to be leaders in the struggle to provide housing for the homeless. All six editorials have now been bound together into a single vital and disturbing book.

Los Angeles, California, and Berlin, Germany, have been dubbed "homeless capitals" for having the largest homeless populations of their respective countries. In this book, the author provides a comparative analysis of the impact of social welfare policy on homelessness in these cities. He addresses the opportunity of people to overcome - or "exit" - homelessness and shows how Berlin, with its considerable social and economic investment for assisting its homeless, has been as unsuccessful as Los Angeles. Drawing on ethnographic insights, the author shows how homeless people in both cities face sociospatial exclusion - legal displacement for criminal activities, poor shelters in impoverished neighborhoods, and market barriers that restrict reintegration. Providing a wake-up call for readers, this book addresses the critical public policy issues that can produce effective services to improve homeless people's chances for a lasting exit.

Throughout California and major urban centers across the United States, the country is experiencing unprecedented levels of homelessness. In Los Angeles County, specifically, leaders and public agencies alike are scrambling to find solutions to this major source of contention. An unstable housing market in addition to the lack of mental health and substance abuse treatment have been linked to the high increase in rates of homelessness. In the last decade, Los Angeles County has witnessed a sharp increase in homeless rates. According to the Los Angeles County Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), there are over 66,000 homeless individuals in Los Angeles County (2020). Urban centers like San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego are facing ever challenging obstacles to tackle this complex problem. Some researchers argue that one of the root causes is the lack of affordable housing. Others argue that mental health and substance abuse are the driving force behind the homeless epidemic. This paper seeks to identify both of the major factors contributing to homelessness and also potential solutions. It also seeks to critique current policies that have exacerbated the problem and other policies that have failed. The research study proposed will incorporate a quantitative method in its design. The proposed study can be best described as explanatory research intended to better understand homelessness in Los Angeles County. The study will use a self-reported questionnaire for a non-numerical understanding of the phenomenon. It will incorporate quantitative data to better capture the personal attributes of the homeless. This type of data is generally difficult to capture. Therefore, this study's strength is its ability to gather data that would otherwise be strenuous to capture. In the last several years the state of California and the city and county of Los Angeles have passed new legislation that has directly or indirectly affected homelessness. The proposed study seeks to make a link between failed policies and the increase in homelessness. Homelessness has increased 13% in the last year (LAHSA, 2020). Clearly, legislation like Measure HHH has had little impact on Homelessness. Lastly, the study may point to future directions in public policy development and implementation. By studying the data captured legislators can consider the hurdles the homeless population faces.

A majestic one-hundred-year study of segregation in Los Angeles City of Segregation documents one hundred years of struggle against the enforced separation of racial groups through property markets, constructions of community, and the growth of neoliberalism. This movement history covers the decades of work to end legal support for segregation in 1948; the 1960s Civil Rights movement and CORE’s efforts to integrate LA’s white suburbs; and the 2006 victory preserving 10,000 downtown residential hotel units from gentrification enfolded within ongoing resistance to the criminalization and displacement of the homeless. Andrea Gibbons reveals the shape and nature of the racist ideology that must be fought, in Los Angeles and across the United States, if we hope to found just cities.
