“…Street youth are a diverse group, consisting of individuals with unique backgrounds and characteristics, including culture, age, sexual orientation, and family situations (Karabanow, 2003;Kurtz, Jarvis, & Kurtz, 1991;Robertson & Toro, 1991;Unger, Kipke, Simon, Montgomery, & Johnson, 1997;Zide & Cherry, 1992). Common among many street youth are backgrounds associated with physical and sexual abuse, neglect, and exposure to delinquent activities such as substance use, prostitution, and petty crime (Cauce et al, 2000;Karabanow, 2003;Kurtz et al, 1991;McCarthy & Hagan, 1992;Tyler & Cauce, 2002).…”

“…Pour tous, l'itinérance est une condition de vie qui comporte des risques: risques pour la santé physique et mentale et l'intégration sociale (Abbott et Blake, 1988;Caputo et coll., 1994;Deisher et coll., 1992;Lamontagne et coll., 1987;Robertson, 1991;Stefanidis et coll., 1992); risques d'un cycle de victimisation (Colby, 1990;Powers et coll., 1990;Saint-Laurent, 1991;Whitbeck et Simons, 1990;Zide et Cherry, 1992); risques d'activités criminelles (Caputo et coll., 1994;McCarthy et Hagan, 1991;Simons et Whitbeck, 1991;Whitbeck et Simons, 1990; et risques de perpétuation de cette condition de vie à l'âge adulte (Caputo et coll., 1994;Deisher et coll., 1992;Powers et Jaklitsch, 1993;Roberston, 1991;Simons et Whitbeck, 1991).…”

Depuis une dizaine d’années, la configuration du phénomène de l’itinérance semble marquée par la croissance d’un segment spécifique, souvent désigné par l’expression « jeunes de la rue ». Cet article propose une recension des écrits autour des difficultés et des débats auxquels donne lieu la définition du phénomène de l’itinérance chez les jeunes. Un portrait général des tendances et des enjeux de la recherche est brossé par l’examen des orientations théoriques, des méthodologies de recherche ainsi que des définitions des termes « itinérance » et « jeunes ». C’est à partir de la diversité de ces éléments problématiques que pourra être comprise la multiplication des pistes de réflexion sur la nouveauté du phénomène social ainsi nommé.Over the last ten years, the homelessness phenomenon has been characterized by the growth of a particular segment, often designated by the expression "street youth" (jeunes de la rue). This article reviews the literature pertaining to the difficulties and debates surrounding the definition of the youth homelessness phenomenon. A general portrait of research trends and issues is given through the examination of theoretical orientations, research methodologies and the definitions of the terms "homeless" and "youth." It is on the basis of the diversity of these problematic elements that the proliferation of research avenues into this new social phenomenon can be understood.Desde hace una década, la configuración del fenómeno de la itinerancia parece estar marcada por el crecimiento de un segmento específico, usualmente designado con la expresión "jóvenes de la calle".

Zide and Cherry (1992) propose a typology of homeless youth, identifying four specific categories that include: running from, thrown out, running to, and forsaken. Youth who leave home to escape difficult family experiences are classified as the "running from" group.…”

“…Family conflict and histories of physical or sexual abuse are consistently reported among homeless youth (Hyde, 2005;Williams et al, 2001). Family dysfunction is characterized as poor family attachments, conflict, and parental substance abuse (Zide & Cherry, 1992).
