Within the discipline of sociology, I examined the article by Meanwell (2012) on homelessness literature, while in the discipline of clinical social work, I focus on the article by Farrell's (2012) on the self-psychological aspects of chronic homelessness. Although Farrell takes a psychological approach to investigate the self- psychological in chronic homelessness, Meanwell focuses on a literature analysis to understand homelessness. Meanwell's sociological approach provides a clear understanding of homelessness through various demographic perspectives analysis. However, it may be limited due to its dependence on secondary data, which could restrict the depth of understanding given (Meanwell, 2012). On the other hand, the clinical social work approach employed by Farrell provides a broader perspective on individuals' experiences. However, it might not sufficiently address the systemic causes of homelessness (Farrell, 2012). My understanding of the social issue has been enhanced by considering it from two distinct social science perspectives. Clinical social work has given me insight into the unique challenges faced by homeless people and their strategies for overcoming them, while sociology has helped me understand the broader societal behaviors and patterns surrounding homelessness. My awareness of the difficulties of homelessness will be enhanced by combining insights from both fields, which will help to eliminate my bias. The next phase is to write a final paper that combines the knowledge I've received from the two fields. I should do further research to fill up any knowledge gaps and concentrate on combining sociology and clinical social work theoretical frameworks. Also, I need to figure out 3 how to organize my paper so that it illustrates a variety of strategies I've used to combat homelessness. 4 Reference Farrell, D. (2012).

However, some groups, like LGBTQ, are likely to face the adverse effects. Today, the social group is facing significant threats, including the homeless, mainly due to public sentiment and conduct. LGBTQ are vulnerable to discrimination, low incomes, lack of support, low education, and other issues associated with homelessness. Amongst the LGBTQ community and youths, the cause of homelessness can be attributed to various factors. Already considered a minority among social groups, discrimination is likely to affect their ability to get well-paying jobs (Moses, 2019). This will affect their income levels, which directly affects homelessness in the United States. Secondly, poverty is among the key causes of homelessness in America. Poverty is the inability to meet all the basic needs, including housing and access to food and other needs. Even though they may be working in poverty, the inability to meet all their need and sometimes issues of income levels come into play here. The next cause of homelessness is the lack of support services and help from the government, and incentives like housing, funding, and provision also lead to more homelessness. In the country, the process of acquiring a house can be challenging since the costs are high, and not everyone can afford to have one (Moses, 2019). Secondly, education level is a significant issue affecting income and employment capabilities and benefits. As a result, those with less education are likely to get low-paying jobs that may not meet all the basic needs, like housing. All these conditions are likely to affect LGBTQ youths, thereby leading to higher percentages of homelessness among this population. The issue of LGBTQ in America does not get a good reception amongst certain communities, and they are likely to face rejection, biases, and abuse from homes and communities (Voices of Youth Count, 2021). As a result, they are likely to wind out of their homes in worse conditions in pursuit of freedom. This is likely to lead to some of them ending up on the street or in poor housing conditions away from home. Due to public discrimination and biases, the ability of known LGBTQ members to secure a job is worrying nationally. Even if they secure the job, not all may get the most secure jobs to meet their qualifications and profiles. Eventually, they are likely to face income inequality issues, further affecting their ability to meet all their basic needs, including housing. There are many cases of LGBTQ in educational institutions, and as a result, some may not have the freedom to fully complete their schooling. Further, some are likely to have mental health issues affected by public sentiment, which can affect their education levels (Voices of Youth Count, 2021).. Since some of them may come from families where they are rejected, they face significant issues like lack of school fees. Further, they also face significant domestic violence, one of the main causes of mental health in schools. Due to their declining mental health, their performance may not be the best. Some may also indulge in activities like drugs and substance abuse to distract from reality. Eventually, the outcome leads to low education levels, resulting in low income and homelessness. As society is still divided into issues of sexuality and preferences, groups like LGBTQ are sometimes neglected. Due to the neglect, most of them are unlikely to access social and support services (Voices of Youth Count, 2021). Therefore, any attempt to seek mental health and protective support from the government leads to no results, and eventually, most will end up on the streets. References Biess, J. (2017).
