Book

Description

"Today, 40 percent of the homeless are single mothers and children; their numbers are increasing. More Than Housing is the first book focusing on a new housing type that responds to this growing emergency. The innovative models are called 'lifeboats' because they rescue and transform lives. Lifeboat architecture and communities of support help single mothers move out of poverty, dependence, abuse, and homelessness."--Publisher (barnesandnoble.com)
