Promoting Health in the Homeless Community: Assessing the Screening Process for Social Determinants of Health in Homeless Shelters

The purpose of this study is to improve the intake assessment tool of homeless shelters, to better meet the needs of the potential residents. This will be done by identifying and addressing gaps in the intake assessment tools that homeless shelters use. Specifically, it will focus on addressing gaps related to social determinants of health (SDOH). By identifying and addressing these gaps, homeless shelters will be able to better assess the SDOH needs of their potential residents. This will help identify more needs of homeless individuals, promote health, and reduce the risk for negative health outcomes in this population.
