English term or phrase: A decade of decline: Homeless Mothers' Health Worsens

Hola a todos!

Estoy haciendo la traducción de un artículo pero tengo duda en el uso de la palabra Homeless, se que hay varias definiciones: Vagabundo, indigente, sin techo, sin hogar, mendigo...

El artículo trata de un estudio que hicieron en la Universidad de Massachusets sobre "homeless families".

Mi pregunta es quedará bien la traduccion del título de esta manera: Una década de deterioro: La salud de las madres SIN HOGAR/ DESAMPARADAS empeora.

No sé cual de las dos palabras se ajustaría mejor si Desamparadas o Sin hogar...
Muchas gracias por su ayuda...

Una década de deterioro: La salud de las madres sin hogar empeora

Explanation:
Creo que desamparadas puede tener otras implicaciones. Sin hogar es eso, sin casa.
En la Argentina también diríamos "de la calle" o "que viven en la calle".

En otros países, creo que "sin techo" es más corriente.
