Hello from the East Bay!

It’s just Jay this week, chatting with friend of the pod Darrell Owens, a Berkeley-based housing expert. We discuss a new study from the Benioff Homelessness and Housing Initiative at UCSF on the causes and consequences of homelessness in California.

In this episode, we ask:

Can the revelations in this study—or any new evidence, for that matter—finally move the needle on reducing homelessness?

How do “Housing First” advocates address the desire for immediate solutions to a crisis that has been decades in the making?

Why are people who are older, disabled, and from certain racial and ethnic groups so vastly overrepresented among the homeless population?
