We believe that permanent supportive housing is the best solution to address chronic homelessness in America.
And we also believe that this solution has room for improvement.

“The choice is between creating centers where people can not die from overdose versus [...] die behind bedroom doors down the hall from their parents, in public restrooms & alleyways.” - Sr. Medical Director for Substance Use Disorders, @DrSarahWakeman. We need legislation. ⬇️

Grateful to @BostonGlobe for elevating the urgent need to make #methadone - a lifesaving medication - available through doctors' offices and pharmacies.

Buprenorphine is a lifesaving medication approved for pregnant people w/ opioid use disorder.
Patients on this medication are 50% less likely to die of a fatal overdose.
But the drug war gives parents w/ 2 options: 1) overdose, or 2) lose your kids.

So excited to share my essay in @washingtonpost @madebyhistory. Nixon-era, War on Drugs politics are to blame for the stigma and inaccessibility of methadone, one of the most effective medications for opioid addiction.

Currently, I have patients (multiple) needing surgery on dead limbs due to frostbite AND patients (multiple) hospitalized with severe burns from propane-fueled tent fires.
Being homeless means you’re damned if you do AND if you don’t. It’s life threatening either way.

"Drug Overdose Mortality Among People Experiencing Homelessness, 2003 to 2018" by @daniellefineMD @dickins_kirsten @loganadamsmd

In 2020, nearly 92,000 people fatally overdosed.
When I asked @DrSarahWakeman why that happened, she blamed "failed policies" and stigma and said, "No one should die from an overdose."

In this cohort study of people experiencing homelessness, drug overdose accounted for 1 in 4 deaths, with synthetic opioid and polysubstance involvement becoming predominant contributors to mortality in recent years. ja.ma/3HHyvob

Creating a deadline for homelessness will not work. Offering rushed and limited options for storage of belongings does not make this plan humane.

Mayor @MayorKimJaney has given people living on mass and cass an 8am deadline to clear their tents @GBHNews

"Compulsory treatment violates the trust of the very people we are trying to help," says Dr. Sarah Wakeman, Medical Director for Substance Use Disorder at MGH, at a presser at #MassAndCass.
"The only solution to houselessness is housing."
I am thrilled to be staying another year at @MGHMedicine as an #AddictionMedicine fellow and learn from such an incredible group of people!!
