‘ If I wouldn’t have had them, I would’ve been lost ’
As eviction filings begin to surpass pre-pandemic levels and the consequences of eviction for health, well-being, and stability become increasingly recognized, legal assistance has emerged as a growing strategy to prevent evictions and their well-documented negative sequelae. Between July 2017 and December 2025, 27 U.S. jurisdictions passed right to counsel (RTC) legislation, formally establishing a right to legal counsel for tenants in eviction …
A Descriptive Analysis of Tenant Right to Counsel Law and Praxis 2017–2024

“Being homeless can burn you out”
Despite significant efforts to address the homelessness in the United States, on any given night more than 500,000 individuals lack shelter/place to call home. This persistent and high rate of homelessness can be attributed to the shortage of affordable housing options, the eviction crisis, and unmet need for rental assistance. Administrative burdens tied to homeless services may also create barriers to housing for individuals experiencing homele…

METHOD: A retrospective study of a complete comparative dataset of 9,856 WSUSOM MD graduates (1979-2017) was perform…
Practical Theology in Scotland
In this article I will argue that disinheritance is a key theme in understanding the field of Practical Theology in the academy. To do this, I will talk about the way that the disinherited status is often placed upon Practical Theologians in the wider theological discipline. I will discuss the means by which Practical Theologians break boundaries in theological study by embracing their disinherited status as well as engaging with those who are di…

Children completed the object control subscale of the Test of Gross Motor Development 2nd Edition and the perceived physical competence subscale of Harter and Pike’s Pictorial Scale of Perceived Competence and Social Acceptance (1984).
