无家可归的青年报告失业率很高。虽然无家可归者服务机构通常提供就业服务，但大多数无家可归青年都脱离了无家可归者服务机构，并且有限的研究调查了与服务脱节的青年的就业和其他收入来源。我们的研究调查了与服务脱节的青少年的收入来源和收入变化，他们都接受了基于优势的外展和宣传（SBOA，N = 79）。调查结果显示，随着时间的推移，来自非生存行为的就业和合法收入增加（例如，政府援助和从朋友和亲戚那里获得收入），而来自生存行为的收入则减少（例如，卖淫、偷窃、出售财产、出售血液或血浆）。尽管这些年轻人的失业率仍然很高（62%），但生存行为带来的收入却大幅减少。调查结果还表明，就业与住房稳定和心理健康有关，物质使用和收入也是如此，这表明心理健康、住房和物质使用治疗服务是无家可归青年收入稳定的重要组成部分。
Homeless youth report high rates of unemployment. While homeless serving agencies usually offer employment services, most homeless youth are disengaged from homeless service agencies, and a limited number of studies have examined employment and other income sources among service disconnected youth. Our study examined income sources and change in income among service disconnected youth, all of whom received Strengths-Based Outreach and Advocacy (SBOA, N = 79). Findings revealed that over time employment and legal income from non-survival behaviors increased (e.g., governmental assistance and receiving income from friends and relatives), while income from survival behaviors decreased (e.g., prostitution, stealing, selling possessions, selling blood or plasma). Although unemployment among these youth remained high (62%), income from survival behaviors reduced most drastically. Findings also suggest that employment is linked to housing stability and mental health, as is substance use and income, which suggests that mental health, housing, and substance use treatment services are important components in income stabilization for homeless youth.
