Housing Concerns And Subjective Well-Being Of Grandparents Raising Grandchildren, Erika Janet Perez

Theses Digitization Project

This study examines the relationship between housing concerns, ethnicity, and subjective well-being of grandparents raising grandchildren. 17 participants were recruited from the Kin-Care program of Riverside County, Ca. About 19% of families headed by grandparents are living in poverty. When looking at the type of services that would be beneficial for these families, the housing situation is an important matter to consider.
