近年来，永久性支持性住房（PSH）已成为解决美国长期无家可归问题的首选干预措施。然而，几乎所有以前的研究都是在个人层面上进行的，只有最小的尝试，以经验检验PSH和长期无家可归之间的关系在社区一级。本研究使用美国住房和城市发展部（HUD）和其他几个来源收集的纵向数据来模拟PSH社区投资措施与长期无家可归率之间的关系。结果显示，随着时间的推移，PSH投资增加与长期无家可归率之间存在适度的负相关。我们讨论了这些研究结果的影响正在进行的努力，以解决长期无家可归和未来的研究。
In recent years, permanent supportive housing (PSH) has emerged as the preferred intervention for addressing chronic homelessness in the United States. However, almost all prior studies examining the effectiveness of PSH have been conducted at the individual level, with only minimal attempts to empirically test the relationship between PSH and chronic homelessness at the community level. This study uses longitudinal data collected by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and several other sources to model the relationship between measures of community investment in PSH and rates of chronic homelessness. The results show modest negative associations between increased investment in PSH and rates of chronic homelessness over time. We discuss the implications of these findings for ongoing efforts to address chronic homelessness and future research.
