About the Department
Critical Time Intervention (CTI) is a time-limited evidence-based
practice that mobilizes support for society\'s most vulnerable
individuals during periods of transition, specifically chronically
homeless adults transitioning from homelessness into supportive housing.
The intervention is currently being evaluated by the UChicago Health Lab

The goal of the program is to facilitate community integration by
