Report on the recommendations of the systems change collaborative to improve the health of people experiencing homelessness

The purpose of the group was to develop system-level recommendations to improve health for Chicagoans experiencing homelessness in partnership with cross-sector experts and people with lived expertise, focusing on recommendations which CDPH and City partners could have a role in implementing. Initially identified opportunities included expanding access to high-quality, comprehensive care for people experiencing homelessness and those transitioning into housing by benchmarking standards of care, disseminating best practices, identifying common needs, and advocating collectively for policy and system changes.
