Today's edition is sponsored by Nola BuildsFive times five is not 125, but May 5 is the 125th day of the year and goes by 5/5 no matter what side of the Atlantic you are on. Charlottesville Community Engagement has so far been produced on the Western side but one potential future would be for at least some editions to be created in other parts of the world. After all, it has now been three years since the World Health Organization declared the end of the COVID-19 pandemic global health emergency. This opening paragraph was written while listening to an Italian radio station.In this edition:* Four nonprofit groups that provide support for unhoused people present the annual State of Homelessness report to Charlottesville City Council* There's no new public information about how three of those groups will operate a low-barrier shelter at 2000 Holiday Drive* More support has been requested for those in encampments along the Rivanna River but at least one Councilor said another plan is neededFirst shout-out: Upcoming Charlottesville Area Tree Steward walks to celebrate MayThe mission of the Charlottesville Area Tree Stewards is to support rural and urban forests and promote knowledge and understanding of the value of trees for present and future generations.One way the group does that is through holding guided tree walks and there are two opportunities coming up this month.* Charlottesville's Belmont neighborhood is a good example of the city's tree canopy. Charlottesville Area Tree Stewards Steve Huff and Scott Syverud will lead walks on at 9 a.m. on both May 7 and May 8 for people age 14. Sign up for May 7 here or register for May 8 here.* On May 9 at 10 a.m., Charlottesville Area Tree Steward Emily Ferguson will lead a two hour walk at the Virginia Department of Forestry to help identify Hickories, Oaks, and Pines - Oh My! Register here!* On May 12 at 9:30 a.m., Syverud will begin a walk to celebrate Springtime in the Forest at Ivy Creek. Sign up here.All walks are free, but donations are always appreciated. Thanks!The State of Homelessness 2026: Low-barrier homeless shelter edition Every year, nonprofit organizations that work with the unhoused population present City Council with an update on their efforts. The annual State of Homelessness report provides an opportunity to get a big picture look at an intractable issue that the City of Charlottesville is investing millions to solve including the recent purchase of an office building off the U.S. 250 bypass.“This year takes on a different lens because we've had a lot of conversations in regards to 2000 Holiday Drive,” said City Manager Sam Sanders. “This is a chance to go beyond that one facility that we've been discussing and gives the providers an opportunity to provide the Council and the public an update.”Since the last report, several groups have come together to develop an operations plan to run a permanent shelter around the clock. That would include roles for The Haven, People and Congregations Engaged in Ministry (PACEM), and the Blue Ridge Area Coalition for the Homeless (BRACH).BRACH leads the Continuum of Care The executive director of the latter went first.“Overall we've seen an increase in numbers across the board, stronger collaboration and partnerships between the agencies that are represented here today and just better cohesion of services,” said Shayla Washington. “So I think the overarching message is we're all working together, but there's still a greater need than what we can achieve as single entities.”BRACH is the lead agency in the Continuum of Care, a framework established by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development in 1994 to coordinate services. BRACH formed in 1998 and became a tax-exempt non-profit in 2009.“We are the HUD-designated system, mostly handling the HUD federal application for funding,” Washington said. “Currently, our CoC only receives funding for permanent supportive housing from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. But we do oversee regional planning, data collection and data performance, and really just trying to be that main body that's coordinating all the regional housing and homeless services for folks who are experiencing homelessness.”Every year, BRACH also coordinates the Point in Time count which records population data for HUD. This year's event was held on January 28 in the middle of a long cold snap exacerbated by an ice storm. There was an emphasis on getting people inside that night through emergency hotel room stays but Washington said seven people slept in the cold overnight.“We found four people who were sleeping outside and chose to stay outside for that night from Charlottesville and Albemarle, and then three from Louisa County,” Washington said. “We did not receive numbers from the other counties in our catchment area. We had 87 people who were hotel through emergency hotel stays.”BRACH also runs the Coordinated Entry Management System which contains the names and identities of people documented as homeless. As of May 4, there were 333 individuals on what is referred to as the By Name List.“This is people who are either outside or sleeping in a shelter, any place not meant for human habitation,” Washington said. “So if they have a roof over their head, it's because it's an emergency shelter or it's because they are sleeping in a car or a place that doesn't have running water or electricity. If they're couch surfing or staying with friends or family and just kind of unstably housed, that does not count towards our by name list.”Of those 333 people, 58 identified the City of Charlottesville as their last permanent address and 21 said from Albemarle County. Around two-thirds either did not say or were not asked. Washington said that could be improved over time through better training.“Sometimes people aren't willing to give a lot of information at the first point of contact with them,” Washington said. “And so it's just reminding service providers to continue just trying to collect that data anytime you can.”At the moment there are only 54 permanent shelter beds available year-round operated by the Salvation Army at their facility on Ridge Street. That number increases to just over 100 when PACEM operates night shelters in area churches. There are 30 spots for rapid rehousing. And 30 permanent supportive housing spaces.“With permanent supportive housing, these are folks who are mostly older,” Washington said. “One third of them don't have income and they all have disabling conditions and were homeless for very long periods of time before they got into this housing. And it's the most stable that they've ever been in some cases, many cases.”Supportworks Housing are building another 80 permanent supportive units at their Vista 29 facility on U.S. 29.Rapid rehousing offers up to 24 months of case management to assist a person with handling their finances to stay in a place.Washington also presented data on some of the reasons why Charlottesville is an easy place for some to fall out of the housing system. For instance, the average monthly rent for a one-bedroom apartment is between $1,700 and $1,850“As a reminder, affordable housing is defined as not paying more than 30% of your income towards rent,” Washington said.The City of Charlottesville now designates BRACH as a fundamental agency so it receives $250,000 a year to provide services deemed to be vital. That has allowed them to hire a full-time grants and data manager. This year the agency will for the first time conduct a Point in Time count for unsheltered people in the summer.PACEM began operations in 2003 and Deputy Director Cindy Chambers said the organization has traditionally relied on volunteers to operate the shelter in the cold weather months.“One of our churches who hosted 40 men for two weeks required at least 100 volunteers and spent roughly $7,000 to do it,” Chambers said. “So we are an organization that has always thrived on the giving and the compassion of the congregations in our community.”In recent years, staff has undergone some professionalization with additional resources from the City of Charlottesville.Seven people work for the organization year round and there are 27 people who work during the season. In addition to the cold weather shelter, PACEM also runs a secure housing program which offers a year of case management to help a client get through to permanent housing.“It's similar to rapid rehousing in the sense that we give intensive case management,” Chambers said. “However, we do not get any sort of state funding. It's all privately funded and we do this with just a bit of move-in help. And this is how we have sustained, this year, 20 folks in housing through our work.”PACEM also offers additional case management to some clients who may have income but have difficulty going through the steps of securing a lease. She said six people this year have found a permanent home through this housing navigation street outreach.“Unfortunately, we just don't currently have the capacity to give everyone a case manager. So we really focus our efforts on folks who could potentially pay rent,” Chambers said. Chambers said additional staffing and training has allowed the agency to step up some of its intake procedures to increase safety such as enhancing bag checks to stop prohibited items from coming in the doors.“This year we also stopped holding people's items that we used to hold based on feedback from our local police,” Chambers said. “We made 62 calls to 911 and only 10 of them were for folks that we really couldn't handle behaviorally as opposed to last year we made 120 calls.”PACEM is an example of a low-barrier shelter which means overnight guests are not required to participate in case management and there are no sobriety checks. Chambers said staff and volunteers are now trained in mental health first aid.“We really are just there to ensure that you are safe tonight and that you receive a hot meal and you can use the restroom,” Chambers said. “To do that, we do still have standards. You have to be able to compose yourself in a group setting, for example, and you have to be able to take care of your basic activities of daily living.”Chambers said PACEM helps provide places to live through shared housing and is working with property owners who want to be part of their solution while also getting paid steady rent. When Councilor Natalie Oschrin asked if they were looking for new participants, Chambers gave out her contact information. Take a look at the PACEM site.Chambers concluded by telling Council that anything the city can do to help people stay in their homes helps the overall system.“What's been a challenge for us is stabilizing them in that they are all just like one step away from maybe not being able to pay rent,” Chambers said. “So we are relying on a lot of the other programs you all fund, like [Piedmont Housing Alliance] to provide arrears assistance if they do fall behind.”That latter refers to a pilot project intended to help some residents at Kindlewood with higher-than-expected rates for newly constructed units.Second shout-out: Design DevelopArchitectural firm Design Develop is offering a new service aimed at the development community that the rest of us might want to know about , too — 3D point cloud scanning! This technique uses specialized equipment, such as 3D scanner systems, to gather a large amount of data points that represent the surface of the scanned object or scene. This really comes in handy when working with historic structures, as the firm knows from its experience in Baltimore and Charlottesville. Read their blog post for more information!The applications of 3D point cloud scanning are extensive and cover various fields, including architecture, construction, cultural heritage preservation, virtual reality, industrial design, manufacturing, and more. These applications require accurate 3D spatial information, and Design Develop's workflow provides precise and comprehensive results, all while being more cost-effective than traditional methods.Design Develop has expertise in this workflow for their own needs and now has a dedicated team offering this service in the Charlottesville and Albemarle Area. If you're involved in the real estate, design, or construction industry, contact them for more information or a free quote.Visit their website for an introductory video that captures the 3D point cloud scanning of the Downtown Transit Center and a booklet that will explain more!The Haven provides a day shelter in downtown CharlottesvilleThe Haven began operations in 2010 in a church on Market Street purchased by filmmaker Tom Shadyac for the express purpose of providing additional resources for those experiencing homelessness.“The heart of what we have done historically is providing our day shelter respite care,” said Executive Director Owen Brennan. “Over the past year, we had just under 26,000 visits to the day shelter. That averages out to about 70 people per day. And then over the course of a year, we see about 430 unique guests. Over that same time, we serve just under 26,000 meals. We serve breakfast every day of the year, and we serve lunch every Friday.”A partnership with UVA Health brings a primary health clinic each Wednesday to the site, a service that has expanded to include a psychiatric and addiction clinic.Brennan said The Haven also implements Continuum of Care services such as staffing a Homeless Information line for anyone in need.“This could be someone who is about to become evicted, someone who's going through the eviction process, or someone who is currently experiencing homelessness,” Brennan said.If that person does become homeless, they are asked to add their name into the coordinated entry system. Brennan said over 6,000 people called the hotline between April 1, 2025 and March 30 of this year. That's up from about 5,000 the year before.The Haven offers three assistance programs with one of them being direct financial assistance of up to $3,500 for people close to losing their rental unit within 14 days and have no other resources.“Oftentimes, we're partnering with other agencies, whether it's the Pathways Fund for the city or [Albemarle County Emergency Relief Program] for the county,” Brennan said. “Piedmont Housing Alliance has rental assistance programs. So we're doing a lot of really good collaboration to prevent folks from entering homelessness.”The other two programs are the Laura DeLapp Haven Housing Fund and a Rapid Re-Housing initiative. This past winter, the Haven served as an emergency shelter during the intense cold and ice snap.“We had an intense weather event this past January, February and the continuum of care came together,” Brennan said. “The city of Charlottesville contributed $25,000. Albemarle county contributed $25,000. And then we fundraised an additional $100,000 to provide hotel, shelter, food and support for a total of 109 unsheltered community members over 18 days.”Salvation Army preparing to launch next phase of Center of Hope campaign next weekThe Salvation Army has had a presence in Charlottesville since 1912 but began to get involved with providing shelter around 1980 according to Major Donald Wilson.“In this past year we have impacted over 9,653 individuals non duplicated counts which includes 16,304 nights of shelter, 1,367 food boxes, over 51,000 meals and also 3,186 personal care kits to help individuals in whatever situation they find themselves,” Wilson saidMajor Wilson said the Salvation Army has also pushed ahead with a plan to add six units for families with funding from Albemarle, Charlottesville and private donors. He said his office receives over 50 calls a day seeking assistance.The Salvation Army also continues fundraising for an expansion of its facility on Ridge Street to be known as the Center for Hope. He said they're about 59 percent of the way to the goal.“$22 million in construction, $2.2 million in furnishings, fixtures and equipment,” Wilson said. “And the Salvation Army… requires that we establish an endowment for that particular structure. Not only for the maintenance of it, but primarily for the continuation of the program so that we won't begin a program and not be able to operate.”The goal is to have 114 beds and to break ground on construction in 2027. More on this when the media campaign launches on May 12.Groups ask Council for additional support for Rivanna River encampmentOne of the questions at the work session is what should be done before a shelter opens at 2000 Holiday Drive. In late March, the City of Charlottesville hired a firm to go through a section of the Rivanna River embankment near Free Bridge where dozens of people have taken to living in tents. The idea was to both clean up trash but to provide outreach.“Outreach efforts will include distributing informational materials and providing fire safety guidance related to heaters, open flames, and carbon monoxide risks, as well as information about available community services,” read a press release from the time.No one was displaced as part of the clean-up. In February, both Brennan and Washington have joined a Public Spaces Working Group.“Our goal is to from each of our respective vantage points identify solutions that we all can get on board with to improve safety, improve health qualities both for the people in camp down at the river, the environmental health and the repercussions for businesses and residents who are adjacent to those encampments,” Brennan said.This week the group sent a letter to Council with additional requests. One is for delivery of portable toilets. The second is to identify an alternate location that would be much safer.“One of the biggest safety concerns is that all of the encampments are currently within what's called the floodway,” Brennan said. “So when we get a heavy rain, that's where the water is actively running. So there was a significant flood. It was 18 months ago. No one died but belongings were washed away. So we would love to find alternative, safer spots for folks.”Washington said BRACH has one outreach coordinator who goes out to the camp once a day to check on people.City Councilor Michael Payne brought up the issue of fire risk after seeing lots of propane tanks being used for heating and cooking.“I observed a lot of unsafe use around open flames,” Payne said. “We're currently in a drought. It's not just a thing to say. I mean, there's a house in Albemarle that burnt down from a propane tank last year.”There were no major updates on the low barrier shelter at 2000 Holiday Drive at this meeting until an hour and 45 minutes in when Washington said Sanders had been sent an updated estimate on Phase 1 that afternoon.“We now have two concrete numbers for phases one and two,” Washington said. “So now we need the city to decide which phase you'd like to move forward with or if you'd like a third option.”This information is not yet public.Councilor Lloyd Snook said he had not seen the report but he said he had a concern.“The broad concern that some of us looking in from the outside have had is that it seems as though the different organizations, the different nonprofits have sort of fundamentally different ways that they think they want to approach the problem and that we need to have one approach,” Snook said.The story will continue to develop.#1045 is also a podcast This is an atypical edition. I very much wanted to be able to get one of these Council work sessions written up quickly. A lot happened at Council but I wanted to prioritize this very important story.I say a lot how this newsletter intends to document complexity and that's what this edition attempts to do. Is this the best way to have told the story? Could there be other voices? The answer is always yes. But, what other media outlet in this community is capable of bringing you this information? Is anyone else even ambitious enough to try? I'm certainly willing to do so and glad for paid subscribers and donors to make it happen. You can learn more about the latter choice here.

Welcome, listeners, to Ozempic Weightloss Unlocked – your trusted source for the latest news and updates on Ozempic and its impact on health, lifestyle, and medicine.Ozempic, originally developed by Novo Nordisk to help manage type two diabetes, has skyrocketed in popularity for its ability to suppress appetite, slow digestion, and help people achieve significant weight loss. Since its approval in 2017, Ozempic's active ingredient, semaglutide, has not only helped people lower their blood sugar, but has also turned into a twenty-one billion dollar blockbuster thanks to growing demand, celebrity mentions, and viral trends on social media.According to recent coverage on NDTV and Science Alert, millions have experienced meaningful weight loss while on Ozempic and similar appetite-suppressing medications. Reports mention that some users have lost up to twenty pounds or more within just a few months. However, new research from Peking University highlights an important concern: weight loss achieved with Ozempic is often not permanent. Studies analyzed over two thousand participants and found that when patients stopped taking these medications, they typically regained the lost weight—on average, about five and a half pounds within five months of discontinuation. Notably, those who lost the most during treatment tended to gain back more afterward. The underlying reasons for this pattern are not totally clear yet, but the body may undergo changes during weight loss that make it harder to maintain results once the medication is stopped.Aside from weight regain, another consideration is muscle loss. UVA Health researchers have found that while GLP-1 medications like Ozempic can help patients shed fat, about half the weight lost can actually be muscle. Dr. Zhenqi Liu has pointed out that losing muscle, especially those essential for posture and movement, can lower overall fitness and well-being. Because of this, experts recommend maintaining regular exercise routines and ensuring enough protein intake while on these medications to help preserve muscle mass.For those concerned about side effects, reports from The Independent note that although most users tolerate Ozempic well, nausea and digestive issues are common and have, in some cases, led to emergency room visits. But, there is promising news on the horizon: scientists have developed an experimental drug, known for now as TDP, that delivered weight loss in animal studies without causing nausea or vomiting. Human trials are expected to begin within two years.Shifting to broader health impacts, three newly presented studies at the Society of NeuroInterventional Surgery suggest medications like Ozempic may even have brain-protective benefits. Researchers from the University of Wisconsin–Madison found that patients taking Ozempic had a considerably lower risk of stroke-related death compared to those not taking the drug, and seemed to recover better post-stroke.Ozempic is also reshaping eating habits on a national scale. Food Dive recently reported that more than six million U.S. adults – about two percent of the population – are taking GLP-1 medications. Studies from the University of Arkansas show that, on average, users of Ozempic consume seven hundred fewer calories a day and tend to cut back on processed foods, sugary drinks, refined grains, and red meat. Grocery spending overall fell by six percent in households with someone on one of these medications. At the same time, consumption of fruits, leafy greens, and water has increased.However, it is crucial to consider possible psychological effects. Business Insider highlights concerns about new or worsened eating disorders among some users, particularly in those with previous histories of restrictive eating. Experts strongly advise against taking these medications without a genuine medical need.The rise of Ozempic and similar medications represents a major shift in how we approach weight loss and chronic disease—but it is not without its caveats. If you or someone you know is considering or already using Ozempic, make sure to consult with a healthcare professional for comprehensive guidance, emphasizing not just the numbers on the scale, but also total health and long-term wellness.That wraps up this episode of Ozempic Weightloss Unlocked.

Welcome back to Ozempic Weightloss Unlocked, where we dive deep into the latest science, news, and real-world impacts of Ozempic and similar medications. Today, we're unpacking the newest discoveries about these increasingly popular weight loss drugs, their benefits, their risks, and how they're changing lives and medical thinking in 2025.First, let's get current: The spotlight on Ozempic, Wegovy, and related medications has never been brighter. Texas Health reports that these drugs, originally developed to manage type two diabetes, are being prescribed off-label for weight loss. They are part of a class called GLP-1 receptor agonists, mimicking a natural hormone that reduces appetite and improves blood sugar levels.According to Buckhead Primary Care Clinic, a recent 2024 study found that people who used Ozempic for four straight years maintained an average ten percent weight loss. That is significant, showing lasting results for long-term users. Other studies, compiled by ScienceAlert and The Independent, indicate that the majority of weight lost during treatment tends to return after stopping the drug, with some regaining weight in as little as eight weeks and the average participant gaining back five and a half pounds within twenty weeks of stopping.The reasons for the regain are still being investigated. Researchers suggest the body's metabolism might adapt to weight loss in ways that make long-term maintenance challenging. Lifestyle factors like exercise, diet, and whether participants had diabetes were taken into account, but a trend of weight cycling was observed. This weight cycling—losing weight and then regaining it—has unknown long-term impacts on health, and more research is underway.Now, what about muscle and fitness? A recent analysis by UVA Health, discussed by ScienceNews and other outlets, found that while Ozempic and similar drugs are effective at shedding pounds, they do little to improve cardiorespiratory fitness, which is a critical measure of health and longevity. More concerning, patients can lose “fat-free mass” during treatment—up to fifty percent of what's lost could be muscle, not just fat. That's why experts like Dr. Liu from UVA recommend combining medication with regular exercise and adequate dietary protein, to preserve muscle and maximize well-being.On the innovation front, new delivery methods are in the pipeline. ScienceNews reports that researchers at Stanford have developed a hydrogel that, once injected with Ozempic or Mounjaro, could maintain steady drug levels for weeks, potentially reducing injections from fifty-two a year to just four. Although still in animal trials, this technology could make ongoing treatment much more user-friendly in the future.The cultural impact is also significant. As Business Insider outlines, about one in eight adults in the United States are now taking a GLP-1 medication. These drugs have helped alter the narrative around obesity, framing it as a medical condition instead of a personal failing. However, the increased popularity has led to rising cases of eating disorders tied to the medications, and some clinicians now warn about new risks for those with a history of restrictive eating or who don't need the medication medically.Another debate is brewing over guidelines for children and teens. Stat News uncovered that more than a third of those who developed pediatric obesity guidelines had financial ties to drug manufacturers, raising concerns about impartiality and the wisdom of prescribing these strong medications to young people.To wrap up, the current consensus is that Ozempic and similar drugs represent a major advancement in obesity treatment, especially for people with type two diabetes or severe obesity. However, experts stress that these medications work best when combined with lasting lifestyle changes such as healthy eating, regular exercise, and ongoing medical guidance. Weight loss medication is often not a quick fix but part of a much larger, longer-term health plan.Thank you for tuning in to Ozempic Weightloss Unlocked.

In this episode of Curing with Sound, Lynn Dengel, MD, a surgical oncologist at UVA Health, discusses her groundbreaking clinical trial combining focused ultrasound with immunotherapy to treat patients with advanced melanoma. She shares insights into how this Foundation-funded trial – which is still enrolling patients – could help those who don't benefit from standard immunotherapy alone. Key points from the conversation: Melanoma is the most invasive type of skin cancer and accounts for the majority of skin cancer deaths. More than 100,000 Americans are diagnosed with melanoma each year. The study will enroll approximately 11 participants with advanced melanoma who are receiving a cancer immunotherapy drug (PD-1 antibody blockade) as part of their regular care and having the melanoma surgically removed. Dr. Dengel explains how focused ultrasound not only targets tumor tissue but may also create an enhanced environment for immunotherapy to work more effectively. As a senior advisor to the Foundation's immunotherapy program, Dr. Dengel highlights the value of cross-institutional collaboration in advancing focused ultrasound research and improving patient outcomes.

You want to blame UVA Football coach Tony Elliott, or UVA Basketball coach Ron Sanchez, or the athletics director, Carla Williams, but the truth is, the problems with UVA Athletics are more than what you think. Our #TeamAFP resident Chicken Little, Scott German, joins me on the podcast for a rousing discussion of all that ails UVA Athletics. Included in our rather depressing chat: We're losing the starting quarterback, Anthony Colandrea, for no good reason. We're keeping the offensive coordinator, Des Kitchings, for no good reason. Is Carla Williams even around in a few months to have to deal with all of this? Do the issues involving UVA Health and the external review of the Nov. 13, 2022, shootings play a role in all of this?
