This report summarizes findings from a community-based
participatory research study conducted in collaboration
with survivors from marginalized communities. Between
July 2019 and July 2020, our research teams held 14
listening sessions with Black and Latinx survivors who had
intersectional identities related to their life experiences,
including having a history of incarceration, being a new
immigrant, living in poverty and/or being part of the LGBTQ
communites. Study participants shared stories about
finding, keeping and losing their housing. Researchers
used a modified constructivist grounded theory approach
for data analysis. A model of housing insecurity which
incorporated participants’ experiences was developed by
the research team following initial listening sessions (7). The
team then held a series of participant validation groups (7)
in order to refine the model and develop recommendations. (From the report). Record #7323
