This breaks my heart 💔🥺 LavaMaeˣ was the first to revolutionize radical hospitality for unhoused communities by providing mobile #WASH services: a safe place to shower and access a toilet. LavaMaex also helped others expand mobile WaSH programs that are needed across cities!

Incredible piece by my colleague Ryan Assaf, PhD, MPH that debunks the myth of substance use causing homelessness! ✊🏽 It also sheds light on the urgency to invest in harm reduction programs to save lives and connect people to services! So proud of you, Ryan!
