Why does homelessness keep repeating even after people receive help?
In this episode of Your Transformation Station, Gregory Favazza examines a research project exploring homeless recidivism and the deeper causes behind repeated homelessness.
The study collected insights directly from individuals experiencing homelessness, focusing on their histories, current challenges, and unmet needs. The goal is to move beyond temporary shelter solutions and establish a new standard for long-term support and recovery.
The conversation explores root causes, trauma-informed care, and a proposed triage model that could connect individuals with the services they need in a more coordinated way.
One surprising insight from the research is the role that libraries play as information hubs, where many people experiencing homelessness go to seek guidance and resources.
This episode explores how communities might rethink homelessness interventions by focusing on understanding people first, then designing solutions around real needs.
