Permanent Supportive Housing Increases Housing Stability and Reduces Emergency Room Visits, Incarceration Rates in California

A study on gentrification and policing coauthored by Malcolm Guy, CLPHA’s Senior Policy & Research Analyst, was recently published in Urban Studies journal. By integrating the literatures of urban studies, crime, and deviance, the study theorizes the linkage between nearby gentrification and disorder policing. Using Washington, D.C. as a study site, the study demonstrates how urban revitalization in adjacent census block groups increased order maintenance arrests in the average block group.
