UTHealth HOMES Project Director, Jane Hamilton, PhD, MPH, LCSW-S is an investigator for the Collaborative Outcomes study on Health and Functioning during Infection Times (COH-FIT) -- a large international survey project for the entire population of countries affected by the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19).

This is an anonymous population-based survey and is open to all regardless of COVID exposure.
Please take this survey and share widely with others (see link below). We want the world to be well represented.

The project involves almost 200 investigators in more than 35 countries and has been endorsed by multiple national and international professional organizations. The COH-FIT project aims to identify risk and protective factors that will inform prevention and intervention programs for the COVID-19 pandemic and should other pandemics occur in the future.

Jane Hamilton, PhD, MPH, LCSW, recently discussed the partnership between UTHealth HOMES, Open Door Mission, and The Harris Center in the launch of the Open Door Residential Program. The program’s mission is to ensure homeless males discharged from HCPC and other inpatient psychiatric services are provided with safe and secure housing. Congratulations to all parties involved!

Jane Hamilton, PhD, MPH, LCSW, on behalf of UTHealth HOMES, accepted a donation of 10,000 surgical masks from Buck Mason. The masks will ensure that all homeless patients have access to masks when they visit our facilities at BBSB or HCPC.

We’d like to thank Buck Mason and Cleo von Siebenthal for this generous donation!

Unbelievably sad and shameful! Sophie and I cried when we watched the video.
