People with Mental/Emotional Challenges

i want a very short outline.

this is two examples

1.) Central Argument:

The central argument is that the homeless population in Los Angelesis systematically “othered” through societal attitudes, mediarepresentation, and public policy, which perpetuates theirmarginalization and hinders efforts to address homelessness effectively.

2.) Research and Analysis:

– Citation:
Homeless Research Data Collaborative. Akido Labs, USC, UCLA, 2024.

– Description:

This collaborative effort provides a comprehensive understanding ofhomelessness in Los Angeles by combining quantitative data withqualitative experiences, highlighting the complex nature of “othering”and its impact on the homeless population.

3.) Examples from Research:
– The collaborative’s findings show that homeless individuals areoften excluded from policy-making processes, leading to solutions thatdo not fully address their needs or respect their dignity.
– Personal narratives collected by the collaborative reveal the dailyexperiences of discrimination and the internalization of the “other”status by those who are homeless.
– The media and public discourse frequently perpetuate stereotypesabout homelessness, which further alienates this group and hindersefforts to provide meaningful support.
