How do people who use substances experience accessing and living in homeless hostels? A systematic review

Part of a new Practice Development Unit (PDU) online learning series focused on sharing latest research and learning in the field of severe and multiple disadvantage (SMD). This session will be led by Twinkle Choksi, Trainee Clinical Psychologist, looking at the findings from the report of the same name.

 

It is recognised that people experiencing homelessness often use substances and may face additional barriers to reducing substance use while living in hostels. This session will discuss existing research to address: How do people who use substances experience accessing and living in homeless hostels?

We will discuss themes such as living in fear, the power of human connection, the need for emotional safety, and the use of restrictive practices.

The webinar will enable you to hear from one of the authors of the report to learn more about the existing research on this topic. There will also be opportunities to ask questions at the end via an interactive Q&A with the author/presenter, Twinkle Choksi.
