Abstract

This study examines the existence of leadership in this context of the homeless. More specifically, the study looks at the leadership traits and the potential for leadership among homeless women finding temporary refuge in an emergency shelter in Richmond, VA.

And finally, this study will look at the difficulties potential leaders in the homeless context face, and what the possible ways are to alleviate them.
