SUMMARY:People\, Policy\, Planning\, Place and Product: Lessons from a City Planner
DESCRIPTION:ANNUAL DIVERSITY\, EQUITY\, INCLUSION AND BELONGING LECTURE \nPresented by Christopher A. Watson\, M.Sc.\, Ph.D.[c] Director of Planning and Development Services\, Murphy Schiller & Wilkes LLP \nPlanning as a tool is ideally to organize the physical environment to effectuate the life course of residents\, so that they can be triangled with the resources needed to live successful life courses. Often\, whoever gets to make the decision as to how space is organize determines the outcome for those residents\, enveloped in those planned areas. To better provide the support residents need to advance themselves\, personal agency aside\, planners must be able to be the best translators of residents’ voices within planning principles that forward an agenda that is inclusive of community voice. Without this key understanding in practice\, space is disorganized\, and the evolution of society is stymied by confusion. \nThis conversation will explore these themes and will allow us as planners to have an honest conversation as to what our mandates are\, how we practice these mandates\, and how we come together to organize space around who we are planning for. Planning for people should include their voices\, and this lecture is to provoke a conversation as to how we get to this realization in our practices. \n

SUMMARY:Fostering Health Equity by Creating Equitable Housing: An Anchor Institution’s Journey
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Kenneth Morris\, Jr.\, MHA\, MA\nVice President\, External Affairs\, St. Joseph’s Health \nView Video Here \nSupportive housing is a groundbreaking concept that combines affordable housing with essential services to provide stability\, autonomy\, and dignity to people grappling with complex challenges. The New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency (HMFA) Hospital Partnership Subsidy Pilot Program revolutionized the affordable housing landscape by leveraging hospital equity with the 4% Low-Income Housing Tax Credit program to establish affordable housing developments near hospital campuses\, catering specifically to frequent users of hospital services. \nRecognizing the pivotal role of stable\, affordable housing in healthcare\, St. Joseph’s Health\, in collaboration with HMFA and local agencies\, opened Barclay Place\, the first supportive affordable housing  development in New Jersey. Launched in 2023\, Barclay Place\, located near St. Joseph’s University Medical Center in Paterson\, offers vulnerable families and individuals the opportunity to rent affordable apartments and access vital supportive services St. Joseph’s Health provides.  This innovative initiative embodies a new era of compassionate and comprehensive care\, empowering individuals\, and families to thrive in a nurturing and supportive environment. \nAs Vice President of External Affairs at St. Joseph’s Health\, Kenneth M. Morris\, Jr.\, MHA\, MA\, oversees operations at the Paterson\, Wayne\, and Totowa\, NJ campuses. In this role\, he manages Government Affairs\, Community Outreach and Engagement\, the System’s Regional Health Coalition\, the Hospital-Based Violence Intervention Program\, and WIC\, as well as a portfolio of the System’s real estate holdings. Over his 43-year career at St. Joseph’s\, Ken has developed programs to enhance healthcare access for underprivileged residents in Passaic County. Notably\, he spearheaded the creation of the first supportive affordable housing development in New Jersey\, addressing social determinants of health. \nThe Ruth Ellen Steinman Bloustein and Edward J. Bloustein Memorial Lecture was established to honor the memory of these two extraordinary individuals. It celebrates the values and interests Ruth Ellen and Ed cherished and cultivated throughout their lives: the study and preservation of animal species and the natural environment\, the celebration of love\, happiness\, and laughter as tools of clinical medicine\, and the exploration and promotion of humane values\, which they believed were woven in the fabric of Judaic tradition and passed down from generation to generation.

SUMMARY:16th Annual Krueckeberg Doctoral Conference in Urban Studies\, Urban Planning\, and Public Policy
DESCRIPTION:The Bloustein School will present the 16th Annual Krueckeberg Doctoral Conference in Urban Studies\, Urban Planning\, and Public Policy on Friday\, April 5\, 2024. The conference is organized by doctoral students for doctoral students engaged in urban planning\, urban studies\, health\, and policy-related research across disciplines and universities in the tri-state NJ-NY-PA metropolitan region. Named after Professor Donald A. Krueckeberg\, the conference commemorates Don Krueckeberg’s long-running commitment to doctoral education by providing a one-day forum highlighting doctoral student research at the cutting edge of urban studies\, planning\, and public policy. \nDoctoral students at any stage of dissertation research are invited and encouraged to present their work at the conference. First-year doctoral students are invited to participate to try out a topic\, and advanced candidates may present sections of research or a finished dissertation\, or anywhere in between. Past presentations have outlined tentative research topics\, surveyed literature\, reported interim findings\, and overviewed completed dissertations. The conference aims to encourage questions\, comments\, and discussions during each session. \nAbstracts are accepted for submission through 5pm on Friday\, March 8\, 2024 at https://go.rutgers.edu/krueckebergabstract \nA well-known and respected scholar in the planning profession\, Professor Krueckeberg’s special interests and contributions were in the areas of planning history\, property theory\, and land use policy. His books\, Introduction to Planning History in the United States\, The American Planner: Biographies and Recollections\, and Urban Planning Analysis\, still serve as important references for scholars and professionals in planning and public policy. \nAs a major contributor to urban planning and policy studies\, the Bloustein School’s Krueckeberg Conference showcases some of the most unique and forward-thinking research in the discipline.

SUMMARY:Changes in Healthcare Visits Due to Cannabis Use Following Legalization of Non-medical Cannabis in Canada
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Wednesday\, March 27\, at 12 pm ET for a presentation of the NJ ACTS Special Populations Core 2024 Seminar Series – Changes in Healthcare Visits Due to Cannabis Use Following Legalization of Non-medical Cannabis in Canada with Daniel Myran\, MD\, MPH\, CCFP\, FRCPC. \nAn increasing number of countries and US states have legalized or are considering the legalization of cannabis for non-medical use. A major concern is that legalization could increase cannabis use and associated harms. This presentation will review studies tracking changes in healthcare visits due to cannabis in children and adults following non-medical cannabis legalization in Canada. \nDr. Daniel Myran is a clinician-scientist and assistant professor with the Department of Family Medicine at the University of Ottawa. He is an associate scientist at ICES\, where his research program focuses on using natural experiments combined with linked health administrative data to better understand the impacts of public policy on mental health and substance use healthcare visits and outcomes. He practices family medicine with an interest in addiction medicine. \nRegister for the event: https://go.rutgers.edu/jveb79ao
