The Health Benefits of Housing First
Housing First is an anti-homelessness intervention which recognizes that people must first have access to safe housing before engaging with other forms of health and social services.
In their article published this week Ahead of Print, Devlin Hanson and Sarah Gillespie of the Urban Institute examine the impacts of the Housing First initiative ([link removed] ) on health care use, Medicaid enrollment, and mortality among people experiencing chronic homelessness who had frequent arrests and jail stays.
In collaboration with the Denver Supportive Housing Social Impact Bond Initiative (SIB), Hanson and Gillespie randomly assigned study participants to receive permanent supportive housing.
The researchers find that during the two-year study period, those assigned to the Housing First intervention had “significantly more office-based care for psychiatric diagnoses, fewer ED visits, more unique prescription medications, and greater use of other health care.”

Health Affairs is implementing a new word limit for journal research articles.
Beginning with submissions received on or after April 1, 2024, the word limit will change from 5,000 words, including endnotes, to 3,250, excluding endnotes.
This change will allow for a tighter focus on core empirical research elements and create shorter, more accessible content for our audience.
Research papers using both qualitative and quantitative methods will be allowed a word count of 4,000 (excluding endnotes).
For more on this change, check out a newly released article from Editor-in-Chief Alan Weil.
