Chapter 8 of my open access textbook focuses on women's homelessness. Here's a summary of the chapter: nickfalvo.ca/womens-homeles… (1/2)
Free access to a new article on why socio-technical solutions to social and political-economic problems fall short: ojs.lib.uwo.ca/index.php/ijoh…
Thrilled to share our recent article using Street Needs Assessment data to understand needs/experiences among 2SLGBTQ+ people experiencing homelessness in @cityoftoronto. Proud of this exciting contribution! @CAMHnews @CAMHResearch #PLOSONE dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…
Our new overview article on homelessness and mental illness is now freely available online for all. It covers a lot of ground in its ~6,000 words, ending with three proposed practice and policy priority streams to reduce homelessness and improve health (nature.com/articles/s4422…).

There is a lot to unpack here. We know that people prefer private units compared to congregate shelter settings. We know that spaces like this can foster a sense of community. We also know that this is a lot of money that could be spent on actual housing… cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
The Beyond Housing pilot project is hiring a Mental Health Counsellor to join the project team! In partnership with TAEH, @MAP_Health, @LOFTCS, and @dixon_hall, this project aims to support housing-focused care coordination in shelters. Learn more: loftcs.applytojob.com/apply/VSQiucNo…
Woke up thinking about interviews I did yesterday for #TVOTheThread @tvo with women who are now housed but lived in encampments. One said 'We are one of the most marginalized & vulnerable groups'. Yet one of the most feared I added. 1/
This is the Finnish Housing First model. Why do we work like this? We want to ensure that home is not a privilege for the few, but a human right for all. #housingfirst #endhomelessness
Chapter 7 of my open access textbook has just been released. A 'top 10' summary of the chapter can be found here: nickfalvo.ca/homelessness-a… (1/2)
🚨 Our new preprint: ED visits to avoid cold weather exposure by #unhoused ppl are way up in '22/'23. The change is most stark in Toronto (+68%), where pandemic hotels closed and calls unmatched to shelter exploded in '22/'23: cp24.com/news/growing-n… #ONpoli #TOpoli #homelessness
Our new research shows that people experiencing homelessness have been using emergency departments to escape the cold. We need to provide enough shelter and warming spaces so they don't have to do this. theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…
Congrats to @AydaAgha for her 1st author publication in CJUR examining the prevalence of chronic #homelessness based on different Canadian definitions using data from the Health and Housing in Transition longitudinal study collected in 3 cities shorturl.at/iosuO
Chapter 6 of my open access textbook looks at homelessness among Indigenous peoples. You can read a 'top 10' summary of the chapter here: nickfalvo.ca/homelessness-a… #EndHomelessness (1/2)

I want you to listen. These are the stories of African asylum seekers who are being forced to encamp outside 129 Peter St. while all levels of government argue over jurisdiction for their care. Momodou, Chamsah, and Asuman speak to the conditions: cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…
🚨Our latest study, out now in @CJEMonline: #Unhoused patients at Toronto EDs are 14x to 18x more likely to have cold-related injuries (things like frostbite and hypothermia) than housed counterparts. #TOpoli #homelessness link.springer.com/article/10.100…
It's scorching today, and we're concerned about the impact of heat on people experiencing homelessness. At the same time, important to remember that extreme weather will also be a serious threat to health when winter returns. unityhealth.to/2023/07/homele…

Proud of this person for his advocacy. Once again...No one "chooses" to be unhoused. If we keep asking people to keep moving around, we deepen their precarity, making it more challenging for them to leave homelessness and gain any semblance of stability. cbc.ca/news/canada/ot…
