Part 2 - Coalition for the Homeless

March 14, 2021 • Anu Senan • Season 2 • Episode 11

I take a trip around Manhattan on a cold January night with a group of volunteers at the Coalition for the Homeless. They distribute food to the people living on streets. I learn more about what drives these volunteers to help homeless people and they share with me what every homeless person actually needs.
We discuss:
1) What drives the volunteers
2) Stories about the homeless
3) Misconceptions about the homeless
4) Message for the listeners

Listen to part 1 of this episode where I talk with Giselle Routhier, Policy Director at the Coalition for the Homeless, the nation’s oldest advocacy and direct service organization helping homeless men, women and children.
