A Shelter is Not a Home … Or Is It? — REVISITED, released January 2010, is an updated second edition of Dr. Ralph da Costa Nunez’s much-lauded 2004 book that explores lessons learned and lessons forgotten on issues that drive family and child homelessness in New York City, and in other urban areas across the country. This revised work builds on the first edition in light of today’s economic conditions, covering additional developments in city homelessness and housing policies during the Bloomberg administration.
