dc.description.abstractThis work focuses on youth, substances, and becoming unhoused through a predicted attachment theory relationship. In this work, attachment will be defined and dissected, showing the impact that it has on youth through various forms such as parents, caregivers, peers, and schools, and describes the benefits and consequences of attachment and lack thereof. Substances and becoming unhoused are explained as linear predictive factors for a lack of attachment. Gaps in current research are highlighted and given suggestions for advancing work in the field. Interventions to address the current issues with youth and attachment that may lead to substance use and being unhoused are also provided as to suggest different methods for promoting the health and wellbeing of youth in a pre- and post-situational way. Overall, this paper seeks to shed light on the drastic realistic impact that attachment can have on youth, their substance use, and potential for becoming unhoused, and provides suggested methods to tackle this problem.
