    In Japan, women in a wide sense of homeless are virtually supported by welfare services other than measures against homelessness. In this study, a user survey of welfare facilities that protect those homeless women was conducted and analyzed. As a result, it was found that there was a strong link between women's loss of housing and mental illness, and that some of female homelessness repeatedly used these social institutions and psychiatric hospitals from time to time. On the other hand, there were some women who had problems in living in a group and building relationships, and there were a certain number of those who were not suitable for institutional support. Behind difficulty in their life is severe damage experience of abuse and violence from their families and partners in their childhood and after adulthood, suggesting the need to consider the trauma in their support.

    This study tries to investigate the possibilities of programs and functions of “Outreach-based Life Support System (OLSS) in the environment of rapidly developing big cities in Japan and Korea, where many isolated and frail people live alone. Against the situations,“Mimamori”(Caring Watch) system has been introduce in Tokyo Metropolitan Area in order to enhance caring watch among the neighbors as well as local delivery workers who have important information about the isolated people living alone. These initiatives are compared with the Korean “Dorbom System”, which are intended to find difficulties of living alone elderlies of some troubles in everyday life. However, this system is introduce by the initiatives of the central government and fairly strictly controlled by local government. In this point, Japanese systems are more local-residents oriented and expecting more local participation.

    1. Aims of the research and Methods This research aimed to explore women's foundation of life focusing on stability of their housing and housing dynamics. For this aim we undertook two quantitative surveys ; one was nationwide survey for 54〜64 years old women and the other was survey of over 65years people in Setagaya and one qualitative interview for the women in welfare home. In addition, we analyzed single mother's housing dynamics from the micro data of the Panel Survey of the Institute of Home Economy. To compare with English women's conditions, co-researchers reviewed women and housing in England. 2. Findings (1) The tenure structure of women was made up of owned house (in her name), owned house (husband's name or child's name), parent's house and rented house. About 20% of respondents lived in their own named house, while over half of respondents lived in husband's named house. Some women still lived in parent's house. Rented house was about 10%. The tenure structure correlated with their other material assets and was affected by women's employment, educational and marital history. (2) Women who had lived in rented house through life, women who had moved from owned house to rented house,women who had moved to child's house and women who had divorced were separated out as instability housing groups. (3) The panel data analysis found that half of women had moved housing after divorce and the woman moving to rented house had experienced poverty. In interview survey of 17cases there were four different types of housing dynamics. Welfare home was not a gateway to ordinary life for them. (4) In Britain more women had access to mortgaged owner-housing. However, a substantial minority of women were unable to access home ownership.
