  Homelessless in MajorCities By Amanda Lynn, Sociology 101 Spring 2008 Homelessness is a devastating experience for families. It disrupts virtually every aspect of family life, damaging the physical and emotional health of family members, interfering with children’s education and development, and frequently resulting in the separation of family members. The leading cause of homelessness is the inability of poor people to afford housing. Photo by Duanne Romanell
