People experiencing homelessness and addiction face significant barriers when trying to access residential treatment. But when it comes to recovery, there is a huge cost to doing nothing. These costs affect individuals and communities, and impact healthcare systems, social services and the economy. How can evidence, practice and lived experience work together to improve access to recovery?
A conversation with Dr Michela Tinelli, Care Policy and Evaluation Centre (CPEC) at LSE; Ed Addison, co-founder of The People's Recovery Project (TPRP); and Mariusz a TPRP community member. Dr Tinelli's Care Quality Evaluation (CQE) platform, a digital tool to enhance decision-making in health and social care, has helped TPRP to show local authorities and service providers the tremendous benefits of investing in residential treatment for people experiencing homelessness and addiction.
🌈 Hosted by Professor Elizabeth Stokoe, Associate Vice President of Impact at LSE, and Dr Keri Rowsell, Head of Operations at the 100x Impact Accelerator based at LSE, this series features conversations between researchers and their external partners on their work together to create change, impact, and benefit from research.
