In partnership with the HCMC Upstream Health Innovations, MDC director Tom Fisher, with Ph.D. student Gabrielle Clowdus are researching the ways in which health systems have intersected with the housing community to provide supportive shelter for people in need. We will engage HCMC staff as well as the people seeking shelter to plan, prototype, and test alternative solutions.
