Living With Dual Diagnosis and Homelessness: Marginalized Within a Marginalized Group.

CONCLUSIONS: Within this marginalized group, individuals with dual diagnosis were more likely to be from groups considered to be more vulnerable with more complex needs. They were having more problems accessing even basic support, such as shelters and health care. Without a systematic approach in providing appropriate care to individuals with dual diagnosis, the most vulnerable clients are not only the ones likely to suffer the most but also the ones having the most problems meeting their basic needs.
