Panel Study on Persons Who Are Homeless in Ottawa:
Phase 2 Results Final Report, March 2007
Phase 2
Phase 1
PHASE 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Context and Objectives
⢠The Panel Study on Homelessness was developed in response to the City of Ottawa’s interest in facilitating collaboration between researchers at the Centre for Research on Educational and Community Services at the University of Ottawa, Carleton University, Saint-Paul University, the City of Ottawa’s Housing Branch, and the Alliance to End Homelessness in Ottawa.
⢠The purpose of the Panel Study was to examine longitudinally the housing trajectories of persons who are homeless. The primary objective of the study was to identify factors that affect homeless persons’ ability to exit homelessness and achieve housing stability. A secondary objective was to assess the relationship between housing status and health functioning.
⢠This final report of the second phase of the study locates the study in the relevant research literature; describes the implemented methodology; reports the results of quantitative and qualitative analyses; interprets the results in the context of previous research; and discusses the policy and program implications of the findings.
