"Accommodating Difference is a much-needed addition to the evolving and unsettled discussion of supportive housing. This book is a critical and thoughtful read of policy and practice, which through its examples helps us to see how supportive housing can increase subjective well-being and maintain dignity." Janet Smith, Associate Professor, University of Illinois at Chicago, USA "David Clapham's work shines a light on a relatively under-researched housing topic. The need to understand different ways of seeing the world is crucial if we are to provide good quality supported housing for vulnerable people and to embrace and accommodate difference." Jo Richardson, Professor of Housing and Social Research, De Montfort University, UK
