Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Emergency housing is shelter for persons who are already homeless. These shelters typically are only open at night and in many cities only on extremely cold nights.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Those who are in persistent poverty typically are older, with physical and mental disabilities, al-cohol and other drug abuse, severe mental illness, chronic health problems, and significant family difficulties. Transient homeless persons, victims of domestic violence, and persons with tempo-rary housing would be considered in crisis poverty.
