Dennis Culhane and co-authors have authored a report titled "The Emerging Crisis of Aged Homelessness: Could Housing Solutions Be Funded by Avoidance of Excess Shelter, Hospital, and Nursing Home Costs," as reported by the Penn Today & The Daily Pennsylvanian. The report predicts that the number of elderly homeless people will likely triple during the next decade. While the situation is dire, Culhane says that, with the appropriate funding, it could improve.
