Abstract
- Homeless women in Chile live in high-risk situations; however, little research exists about how they face their homelessness. This article helps address this information gap through the identification of factors associated with the level of capabilities that homeless women face in their daily lives. Data were obtained from the Chilean government (December 2017) and included a final analytic sample of 1580 homeless women. Findings indicated that capability level was strongly associated with the individual characteristics of women linked to their life trajectories.
