Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
There are homeless people who are able to function in the workforce. The lack of affordable housing in combination with insufficient income results in people having to spend much of their income on rent and leaves them without adequate resources for other necessities, such as food, clothing, and health care. This situation substantially increases their risk for homelessness.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
In 2008, the Paul Wellstone and Pete Domenici Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act was enacted. The law requires health insurance to cover treatment for mental illness on the same terms and conditions as physical illness. This law does not require that alcoholism be recognized as a disease, that drug addiction be accepted as a mental health diagnosis, or that community clinics must treat clients for mental illness.
