目标
本研究的目的是探讨少数民族和多重少数民族身份对无家可归者退出的主要影响和交互作用，以及无家可归者退出的稳定性。
方法
这项研究利用了无家可归者管理信息系统的管理数据，这些数据是从2015年至2017年期间美国16个地理位置不同的社区的便利样本中收集的。使用多项逻辑回归分析和逻辑回归，种族/少数民族身份和性别/少数民族身份的主要影响和相互作用的影响进行了检查各种无家可归的出口（n = 9957）和住房的可持续性（n = 5836）。
结果
黑人青年，相对于白色青年，是不成比例地退出无家可归通过监禁（P <0.001）。黑人和拉丁裔青年成功自我解决无家可归问题的可能性较小（均P <0.05）。黑人异性恋和黑人和拉丁裔非异性恋青年最常失去无家可归的系统（所有P <0.01）。黑人青年，相对于白色青年，大约一半的可能性，保持稳定的住房后，返回家庭（P <0.01）。
结论
在住房出口和出口稳定性方面，黑人和拉丁裔异性恋青年始终处于不利地位。无家可归/住房系统和方案需要对它们如何实施和发展公平的外联和参与做法进行更深入的调查。
OBJECTIVES
The purpose of this study is to explore main and interaction effects of minority and multiple minority statuses on exits from homelessness and the stability of homelessness exits over time.
METHODS
This study utilized the Homeless Management Information System administrative data of 10 922 youth experiencing homelessness collected from a convenience sample of 16 geographically diverse communities across the USA between 2015-17. Using multinomial logistic regression analyses and logistic regression, main effects and interaction effects of racial/ethnic minority identity and sexual/gender minority identity were examined on various homelessness exits (n = 9957) and housing sustainability (n = 5836).
RESULTS
Black youth, relative to White youth, were disproportionately exiting homelessness through incarceration (P < 0.001). Black and Latinx youth were less likely to successfully self-resolve their homelessness (both P < 0.05). Black heterosexual and Black and Latinx non-heterosexual youth were most frequently lost to the homeless system (all P < 0.01). Black youth, relative to White youth, were approximately half as likely to remain stably housed after returning to family (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONS
With respect to housing exits and exit stability, Black and Latinx heterosexual youth are consistently at a disadvantage. Homelessness/housing systems and programs need to conduct a deeper investigation into how they implement and develop equitable outreach and engagement practices.
