What Constitutes Well-Being for Unhoused Angelenos?

- čas přidán 5. 05. 2024
- Los Angeles leads the nation in unsheltered homelessness, with some 70,000 people living outside. The “housing first” movement argues homelessness is a housing problem. But for those experiencing homelessness, the housing crisis is paired with a health crisis rooted in the ineffectiveness of traditional methods of service delivery.
Researchers at cityLAB-UCLA initiated conversations with people experiencing homelessness in L.A., as well as with the people who work closely with them at Venice Family Clinic to provide shelter and services. Listening to how people with lived experience define factors essential to their well-being shaped the transdisciplinary cityLAB-UCLA team’s proposed design of both mobile and brick-and-mortar health centers. They produced the report “Place to Be: Non-Traditional Services for Well-Being among Unhoused Angelenos” to guide public health providers, planners, designers and policymakers seeking new, open-access ways to serve the needs of unhoused Angelenos, based on a more accurate analysis of metrics that reflect how understandings of well-being differ for and among unhoused people.
