Stacey Livingstone

Postdoctoral Scholar, Homelessness Hub at UC San Diego

Stacey Livingstone completed her PhD in Sociology in the spring of 2023 and is currently a postdoctoral scholar for the Homelessness Hub in the Department of Urban Studies and Planning at UC San Diego where she has been working on several collaborative, community-engaged research projects including a case study on the connections between justice involvement and homelessness, an investigation into single-room occupancy housing, and an evaluation of Humble Design San Diego. In addition to her dissertation, which focused on the health consequences of vulnerability assessment tools and limited resources for those experiencing homelessness, Stacey has conducted public sociology research projects on student housing insecurity and permanent supportive housing with students and homelessness lived experience advocates respectively. Her academic work has appeared in Teaching Sociology, Transformative Dialogues, and Housing Policy Debate and she has written policy briefs for Scholars Strategy Network. Her research has been supported by the Global Health Institute and the Yankelovich Center for Social Science Research. This year, Stacey has participated in both the Urban Affairs Association Publishing Fellowship and the California Research Bureau Nexus Public Scholar Cohort. She additionally has co-led the Homelessness-Experienced Action Research Training (HEART) Fellowship at Homelessness Hub with Dr. Leslie R. Lewis, a co-learning and co-research opportunity for academics and persons with lived experience of homelessness.
