Absence amongst Abundance: Health Inequity and Homelessness in Canada
provides a detailed look at barriers to accessible healthcare which
impact the homeless population. In a country which prides itself in
offering free health services to all, it is often assumed that this
privilege is accessible to everyone, leading to a neglect of those in
the most need. The chapters in this book delve into the different
barriers to accessible healthcare, their root causes and initiatives and
policies looking to address this issue.
