In this presentation, Dr. Rabinowitz Bussell will talk about the work of Homelessness Hub at UC San Diego, a non-partisan hub for research, education, policy, and action on homelessness that is dedicated to critical, unbiased and data-driven research in order to inform local policy and action aimed at reducing homelessness in the San Diego region. She will draw from current research and data to provide an overview of the unique challenges of homelessness and provide a demographic overview of the populations experiencing homelessness in San Diego. She will conclude by presenting examples of best practices in response to the homelessness crisis.
MAY STUDENT SPEAKER
We will also hear from Liza Armand, who is currently enrolled in Eleanor Roosevelt College and looks forward to a career in public health. She wants to use her education to “empower others, whether through healthcare initiatives, policy reform, or direct community engagement…where healthcare is a right, not a privilege.” Liza’s energy and perseverance will serve her well.
