A common concern regarding the implementation of SORRs is the decrease in viable housing options for registered sex offenders, which could potentially lead to homelessness. The vast application of SORRs across the United States, in addition to the known association between homelessness and crime, necessitates a deeper understanding of how SORRs impact rates of homelessness among this population. Utilizing data from South Carolina\u2019s Sex Offender Registry, this study describes patterns of homelessness among this population. Specifically, using an interrupted time series analysis, we examine whether the state\u2019s implementation of its SORR has an effect on the proportion of registered sex offenders reported as homeless. Our findings reveal a strong association between the implementation of residence restriction policies and rates of homelessness for registered sex offenders in South Carolina. Policy implications are discussed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Available at <a href=\"\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1177\/0887403419862334\u201d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"&quot;noopener noopener noreferrer\">Sage Journals<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deanna Cann &amp; Deena Scott, Sex Offender Residence Restrictions and Homelessness: A Critical Look at South Carolina, Criminal Justice Policy Review (2019) Abstract Sex offender residence restrictions (SORRs) have been widely implemented across the United States since the 1990s.
