Richtext
Max has been doing practice focused research into homeless care and supported housing since 2008, with an emphasis on places that support empowerment and recovery. He has a bachelor in social work and a master in sociology. He obtained his PhD at the Free University of Amsterdam, with a dissertation on a consumer run homeless shelter.
