In this episode, we're honored to have Dr. Deborah Padgett, a renowned advocate and researcher in the fields of homelessness and mental health. From her work on Housing First, a groundbreaking book that's transformed the way we approach homelessness in the US and beyond, to her research on homeless "pavement dwellers" in Delhi, India, Dr. Padgett has made an incredible impact on the world.

As a professor at NYU Silver, Dr. Padgett has mentored countless students and influenced the field with her work on mixed methods in research. Join us as we dive into her journey, accomplishments, and insights on the key issues surrounding homelessness and mental health. We'll discuss the importance of centering the voices of marginalized communities, the impact of systemic issues such as racism and poverty, and the role of research in creating change. Tune in to hear from a true trailblazer in the field, and learn how her work is making a real difference in the lives of people experiencing homelessness.
