2S/LGBTQ+ youth substance use and pathways to homelessness: A photovoice study.

Background: Studies have posited that substance use is associated with, or contributes to, homelessness for 2S/LGBTQ+ youth. However, interconnections between these issues are poorly articulated.

Methods: This community-based photovoice study describes the narratives used by 2S/LGBTQ+ youth about how substance use featured in their pathways to homelessness.

A Scoping Review of Evidence-Based Interventions and Health-Related Services for Youth Who Use Nonmedical Opioids in Canada and the United States.

Purpose: This scoping review synthesizes the characteristics and outcomes of recent evidence-based treatments and services for youth with nonmedical opioid use/opioid use disorder in the context of the ongoing opioid crisis in Canada and the United States.

Methods: Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses - Extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines, empirical health databases were searched for literature describing treatments or health-related services for nonmedical opioid use/opioid use disorder among youth (ages 12-25). Two independent reviewers conducted study screening, selection, and data extraction.

Homes of substance: Drugs and the making of home/lessness for 2S/LGBTQ+ youth.

Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and other sexual minority (2S/LGBTQ+) youth between the ages of 14 and 29 experience inequities in homelessness and substance use. Research in this area has explored substance use as a determinant of homelessness and/or as a coping mechanism, yet far less attention has been directed to the potentially generative role of drugs in this marginalizing context. This community-based photovoice study leverages data from 61 semi-structured interviews with 32 2S/LGBTQ+ youth experiencing homelessness and unstable housing to examine how drugs shape their practices and contexts of homemaking.
