What steps can be taken to reduce homelessness?

Episode 100: There are debates happening in all parts of our country about homelessness, and according to the National Alliance to End Homelessness, things have been getting worse. Since 2017, homelessness has risen by 6 percent nationwide, and although nearly everyone wants to reverse this trend, there is little agreement about how to accomplish that. Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada discuss the causes that got us to this point, along with the policies that might help us reduce this trend.
