Community of Practice

Join Our Community of Practice

At the Healthcare Housing Lab, we have established a vibrant Community of Practice that brings together researchers, housing leaders, and caregivers. Our collective goal is to advance a community-engaged research agenda focused on the intersection of healthcare and housing.
       

A Community of Practice is a group of individuals who share a common interest or profession and engage in collective learning through regular interaction. These communities foster knowledge sharing, collaboration, and mutual support among their members, enhancing both personal and professional growth. 

Our Mission

Our Community of Practice aims to:
     
  • Collaborate: Unite diverse stakeholders to share insights and experiences related to healthcare housing.
  • Innovate: Develop and implement research initiatives that address the housing needs of patients and caregivers.
  • Advocate: Inform policy and practice to improve access to healthcare housing, particularly for underserved communities.    

Get Involved

We welcome individuals and organizations passionate about healthcare housing to join our Community of Practice. By participating, you can:
     
  • Engage in Research: Collaborate on studies that explore the impact of housing on health outcomes.
  • Share Best Practices: Exchange knowledge and strategies to enhance housing support for patients and caregivers.
  • Network: Connect with professionals and advocates dedicated to improving healthcare housing.
