在无家可归的人中,难以获得住房往往因同时存在的挑战而变得更加复杂,这些挑战包括失业、慢性疾病、刑事司法介入和受害。向前迈进计划(MAP)是一个职业康复计划,旨在帮助面临这些挑战的成年人获得有竞争力的就业。我们前瞻性地研究了MAP毕业生(N = 97)从MAP开始到毕业后约6个月的变化。我们观察到,不仅在就业和住房方面,而且在健康、药物使用和刑事司法参与方面都取得了各种积极成果。然而,这些收益并不普遍;例如,如果参与者开始MAP时患有严重的精神疾病,工作技能的收益相对较小,或者在完成MAP后的6个月内没有寻求心理健康治疗,则参与者在随访时报告积极结果的可能性较小。这些发现可能会鼓励项目工作人员投入额外的资源来支持有风险的学生。
Among people experiencing homelessness, difficulty securing housing is often compounded by concurrent challenges including unemployment, chronic illness, criminal justice involvement, and victimization. The Moving Ahead Program (MAP) is a vocational rehabilitation program that seeks to help adults facing these challenges secure competitive employment. We prospectively studied how MAP graduates (N = 97) changed from the beginning of MAP to about 6 months after graduation. We observed a variety of positive outcomes in not just employment and housing but also health, substance use, and criminal justice involvement. However, these gains were not universal; for instance, participants were less likely to report positive outcomes at follow‐up if they started MAP with a serious mental illness, made relatively small gains in work skills, or did not seek mental health treatment during the 6 months after they completed MAP. These findings might encourage program staff to devote additional resources toward supporting at‐risk students.
