A Complex Exile shows that the homelessness sector inadvertently
reinforces the social exclusion of people who are homeless. Over
235,000 people couch-surf, stay in emergency shelters, or live on
the street in Canada every year. However, the very policies,
practices, and funding models that exist to house the homeless,
promote social inclusion, and provide mental health care form a
homelessness industrial complex. These practices emphasize personal
responsibility and individualized responses that ultimately serve
to subtly exclude people. This book goes beyond bio-medical and
psychological perspectives on homelessness, mental illness, and
addiction, to call for a transformation in how we respond to
homelessness in Canada.
