This study is about female poverty in Saudi society, focusing on poor femaleheaded households (FHHs) in Jeddah City. It aims to explore the social, cultural and demographic characteristics of such families. It highlights the social reality of FHHs with a focus on the details of their everyday lives and their relationships with social support institutions. The sample comprised 112 FHHs, represented by their female heads, selected by marital status according to five subgroups: widows families, divorced womens families, abandoned womens families, prisoners wives families and married womens families. A further sample comprised 18 informants from different governmental and nongovernmental departments. The findings highlight the social, cultural and demographic characteristics of poor FHHs. The findings also show how the subcategories and their female heads struggled daily and how they had similar experiences in some aspects of the public realm but quite different experiences in the private realm. The study concludes with important strategic recommendations aimed at reforming the welfare system, suggesting integrated social policies to eradicate poverty, particularly among FHHs
