Abstract
Abstract People experiencing homelessness have a particular vulnerability to environmental hazards, yet there is little attention paid to the issue of homelessness in environmental justice literature. The current study is a phenomenological inquiry into the experiences of environmental justice and injustice in a community of people who are experiencing homelessness. To understand how people who experience homelessness in the Waterloo Region, Ontario, community conceptualize and experience their environment in terms of cleanliness, healthfulness, safety, and justice, 12 semi-structured interviews were conducted with people experiencing absolute homelessness in Kitchener and Cambridge, Ontario. Analysis shows that although knowledge of systemic environmental injustices is all but absent in this community, particular phenomena do stand out as critical issues, such as substandard rooming houses, drugs and alcohol, litter and pollution, and the behavior of police officers and city officials. Analysis also unveiled a significant dissatisfaction with municipal decision-making processes .

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
