Stephanie Locke has over 10 years of experience in social work and received her MSW at the University of Texas at Arlington. She is a second year doctoral student at the Graduate School of Social Work at the University of Denver. Her personal experience with housing insecurity and homelessness, substance use, and incarceration has motivated her focus on these topics of disparity and the overlap between them. Her most recognized work is with the Denver Basic Income Project (DBIP). In collaboration with DU's Center for Housing and Homelessness Research (CHHR), DBIP distributed no-questions-asked cash, or gauranteed basic income, to over 800 people experiencing homelessness. Stephanie is involved in research regarding juvenile justice invovlement and youth experiencing homelessness, and is contributing to manuscripts that detail the findings of a nationally funded, five-year research project investigating the impact of programming and other factors on individuals who are incarcerated at Sterling Correctional Facility.
