The VA has made substantial progress in housing Veterans. Despite impressive progress in providing housing for Veterans, a fundamental problem remains. Permanent housing is a <strong>necessary, but not sufficient</strong>, condition for successful community integration. Providing housing is only the first step in facilitating recovery among many homeless Veterans; once housed, they will need different types of assistance to integrate into communities. Community integration does not arise automatically once housing is provided.</p> <p>Our Center on Enhancing Community Integration for Homeless Veterans is linked to the homeless programs at VA Greater Los Angeles to serve as an interdisciplinary center for intervention and translational research. This Center fills a critical gap: the problem of community integration for Veterans once housing has been provided.

We are a world-wide bub for studies on pain genetics and pain pharmacogenomics, and are investigating, for example, why some Veterans experience intractable neuropathic pain after nerve injury, while others with similar injuries do not; and why some Veterans with neuropathic pain respond to pain pharmacotherapy while others do not. We want to harness this molecular knowledge to develop new and more effective approaches to therapy. While it is not yet here, we are moving as rapidly as we can toward the development of new, more effective and non-addictive pain medications, and believe that "personalized', genomically-guided pain treatment is an achievable objective.</p> <p>For more information, please visit <a href="http://medicine.yale.edu/cnrr/about/index.aspx" target="_blank">http://medicine.yale.edu/cnrr/about/index.aspx</a></p></td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#ffffff"> <td colspan="2" valign="top"><p align="right"><a href="#top" class="utility">top</a></p></td> </tr> </table> <div class="clear"></div> </div> <!-- end of tier4innerContent if 2-col or innerRightContent if 3-col--> <!-- ******************* END 2/3 COLUMN CONTAINER ***************** --> <br style="clear: both" /> <br clear="all"> <!--added this break 012521 to fix a spacing issue----> <div style="bottom:0; margin-left:30px; margin-top:30px; font-weight:bold; padding-top:10px; border-top:1px solid #cccccc;" id="footerBlock"> Questions about the R&amp;D website? <a href="mailto:HSRDWeb.Boston@va.gov" style="color:#0B6CB2 !Important;">Email the Web Team</a> <span style="font-size:10px; font-weight:normal;"> <br> <br> Any health information on this website is strictly for informational purposes and is not intended as medical advice.
