Living in Transition: Articulating the In-Between
Description:
This thesis addresses the social and architectural issues of homelessness. More specifically, it deals with mothers who are largely disadvantaged, in personal distress, often dependent on alcohol or drugs, victims of substance abuse and homeless (i.e. who would otherwise be in shelters or living from place to place: friends, relatives, potentially abusive or dangerous partners, etc). This particular project deals with low to medium risk homeless mothers who are making a transition from supported living to independent and permanent housing in the city of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
