Here's a quick share of 15 minute video #dialogue with folks who are experts from experience via the UK's #Homeless and #Housing sector. It was fun and I got to highlight one of my favorite stories (Butch) from the woods and riversides of Western MA. #Harmreduction

The studies on Housing First shows great success in addressing chronic homelessness and major mental illness. Housing First was never meant as a primary response to folks with opioid addiction & homelessness.
HF is a concept with many different programs under its umbrella. Interesting NPR video!
Yes... This is true! I worked very closely with Phil Mangano via MHSA. He was appointed by the Bush administration and took the lead in this regard with a national agenda of spreading 10 year plans to end homelessness. Housing First (Pathways Model) was one of the critical tools for achieving this.
