Department Description
The Benioff Homelessness and Housing Initiative (BHHI) is a research and policy initiative within the Division of Vulnerable Populations. The BHHI is an academic program with a focus on developing and disseminating evidence-based solutions to prevent and end homelessness. The BHHI aims to advance and transform policy and practice related to homelessness through 1) conducting policy-oriented research, using a strategic science orientation and community-engaged practices; 2) analyzing existing research and translating it to policy and practice audiences; 3) disseminating findings to key decision-makers in policy, practice and the general public; 4) providing policy translation at local, state, and federal levels; 5) developing and maintaining relationships with a broad array of stakeholders; and 6) training the next generation of policy-oriented researchers.
The Division of Vulnerable Populations is a research division within the UCSF Department of Medicine at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital which focuses on policy-oriented research regarding structural and social determinants of health. The DVP houses the BHHI, Amend, and the UCSF Center for Vulnerable Populations (CVP). CVP is a multidisciplinary research center focused on providing evidence to decrease health inequities through changes at the level of clinical care, community, and policy. To achieve these aims, CVP focuses on diverse topics, such as homelessness, food insecurity, immigrant health, and increasing diversity in the biomedical workforce. Partnering with the community, CVP is tackling some of the most challenging problems in society through discovery, innovation, policy, and advocacy.Required Qualifications
