This is how med students learn —> important implications for care. We need to do a lot of work / retraining here.

Homelessness is rising among older adults, driven by lack of affordable housing paired with a late Baby Boom cohort effect (entire generation coming of age amidst recession and poor job opportunities). Good deep dive in @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...

A slide with a title of a project, names of two presenters, and the logo for VCU and M&M.
Next up, Dez Barnette & Alex
Wagaman presenting on a shared housing program for LGBTQ+ pregnant and/or parenting youth.
Slide says “How we do it: Guiding values.”
Loved hearing about how their project and work together was so grounded in core values (that were developed together with the youth with lived experience). #HxHLab

Many people who exp homelessness work all day--the public just doesn't see them or recognize them. (Neighbors fought against these homeless shelters for working folks, too)
Strongly recommend @brian-goldstone.bsky.social book "There is no place for us" to learn more.

My take home as an ER doc is to let people know that medical respite exists (assuming it does exist in your community) — many patients have never heard of it before and even hospital providers might not be aware of or think of this option.
