Join us for an inspiring afternoon featuring a presentation and Q&A with Dr. Margot Kushel, MD on the intersection of affordable housing, homelessness, and public health, as well as light refreshments and networking with affordable housing professionals and supporters.
For over three decades, Dr. Kushel has both cared for people who experience homelessness and studied the causes, consequences, and solutions to homelessness. Presenting results from her research — including the largest representative study of homelessness in three decades — Dr. Kushel will outline how we got here, what the consequences are, and what we need to do to advance solutions. She will discuss new possibilities opened by recent policy advances, the evidence behind Housing First, and the critical role of advancing affordable housing solutions to end homelessness and improve health outcomes. Dr. Kushel is a professor of medicine at UCSF and Director of the UCSF Benioff Homelessness and Housing Initiative.
