Disadvantaged groups


Nature

Disadvantages of economically poor and/or minority groups typically include deprivations in housing, education, work opportunity and medical care (most often pre-natal); and are associated with family disruption, faulty identity formation or malignant identity diffusion, and excessively high rates of juvenile offences and of admissions to mental hospitals.

Incidence

Socially deprived people are much more vulnerable to personal disasters, such as mental illness, unemployment and even losing children to public care.
