Produktbeschreibung

Why is the growing crisis of chronic homelessness, and its associated cost, so misunderstood and mismanaged?

If there was ever a time to address the chronically unhoused and bridge the gap between our ideals and actions, it is now. Drawing on years of experience caring for homeless populations, public health physician Brian Klausner, MD, shares the profoundly human stories hiding behind the statistics, weaving powerful accounts of resilience, childhood trauma, and its lasting effects into a bold examination of a preventable tragedyone that drains taxpayer dollars, polarizes communities, and costs lives.

This thought-provoking and compassionate book challenges us to confront reflexive biases and rethink our approach to homelessness. Klausner delivers a science-backed call to action, urging us to unite around shared values and build a more humane, effective society.

Within In the Gaps, you'll discover:

• Strategies to understand chronic homelessness, the roots of trauma, and the solutions grounded in our shared ideals and values.
• Insights into the personal and financial toll of suffering and the systemic failures of American healthcare to address its associated poor outcomes.
• Tools to overcome reflexive dehumanization and align with our true individual, familial, and spiritual values.
• Ways to resist societal polarization in media and politics that distract from shared principles and goals.
• Recent neurobiological findings on trauma's impact on the brain, our predisposition to dehumanization, and how to cultivate empathy.
• How millions of Americansboth in healthcare and beyondcan unite around a common goal, and more.
