And also welcome to Elizabeth Bowen, a doctoral student in the Jane Addams College of Social Work at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Elizabeth says: 'I have several years of practice experience working with homeless people affected by HIV/AIDS, substance use, and other health and mental health conditions. My research interests include place-based health disparities, the social determinants of health and risk behaviors, and homelessness, drug use, and HIV/AIDS as intersecting epidemics. For my dissertation I plan to research HIV risk behaviors and their association with prior homelessness and rent burden for a sample of adults living in single room occupancy (SRO) residences in Chicago. I look forward to being in dialogue with the other members of the group. Thank you for introducing me!'
