伊利诺伊州无家可归者平均20年前死于系统性不平等,2017-2023年死亡人数超过2 900人。 Homeless people in Illinois die 20 years earlier on average due to systemic inequities, with over 2,900 deaths from 2017–2023.

一份新的伊利诺伊州公共卫生部的报告指出,该州无家可归者的住院率、急诊室探访率和早死率都高得多,平均寿命比一般人口短20年。 A new Illinois Department of Public Health report reveals that homeless individuals in the state face significantly higher rates of hospitalization, emergency room visits, and premature death, with an average life span 20 years shorter than the general population. 2017年至2023年间,有2 996名无家可归者死亡,其中包括300多名退伍军人和30名前公共部门工人。 Between 2017 and 2023, 2,996 homeless people died, including over 300 veterans and 30 former public sector workers. 超过10,000人经历了字面上无家可归的经历,233,000人生活在不稳定的住房中。 More than 10,000 experienced literal homelessness, while up to 233,000 lived in unstable housing. 报告将这些差异与无法负担的住房和缺乏医疗保健机会等系统性问题联系起来,并着重指出,尽管对伊利诺伊家园方案削减了760万美元,但非营利组织和社区方案仍在加紧努力扩大服务。 The report links these disparities to systemic issues like unaffordable housing and lack of healthcare access, and highlights rising efforts by nonprofits and community programs to expand services despite a $7.6 million cut to the Home Illinois program.
