We investigate how our guests change pathos in their work.
Imagine a place where getting a roof over your head doesn't come with strings attached. That's the reality at Pathways to Housing PA in Philadelphia. In this episode of 'Challenging Pathos', hosts Marc Burrows and Michael Crouch sit down with Matt Tice and Bill Kinkle from Pathways to Housing PA to discuss their revolutionary 'housing first' program. Unlike traditional methods that demand sobriety before offering help, this program prioritizes providing stable housing as the first step towards recovery.
Matt and Bill explain how their approach, which emphasizes harm reduction over abstinence, offers individualized care, medication-assisted treatment, and peer support. They share stories of how this model has changed lives, tackling not just substance use disorders but also untreated mental health issues that often accompany addiction. The episode dives into the systemic challenges they face and the transformative impact of meeting people where they are.
If you're curious about alternative methods for addiction treatment or are seeking inspiration from successful harm reduction strategies, this episode is a must-listen. It sheds light on why addressing housing needs first can be a game-changer in the journey towards recovery.
