我们检查了 2012 年 10 月 1 日至 2013 年 1 月 10 日期间完成退伍军人健康管理局国家无家可归筛查工具的所有退伍军人的数据。在未参与美国退伍军人事务部无家可归系统并接受初级保健服务的退伍军人中，近期住房不稳定或无家可归的发生率为 0.9%，无家可归风险为 1.2%。未来的研究将完善外展策略、预防资源的针对性以及新型干预措施的开发。
We examined data for all veterans who completed the Veterans Health Administration's national homelessness screening instrument between October 1, 2012, and January 10, 2013. Among veterans who were not engaged with the US Department of Veterans Affairs homeless system and presented for primary care services, the prevalence of recent housing instability or homelessness was 0.9% and homelessness risk was 1.2%. Future research will refine out-reach strategies, targeting of prevention resources, and development of novel interventions.
