Episode 9: Aiding the Unhoused with Bread for the City
Thursday Mar 30, 2023
Thursday Mar 30, 2023
Housing is an issue that affects every city in the United States, and is especially challenging in Washington, DC. That's why Chris and his brand new co-hosts, comedians Scott Bendure & Laura Franzese, sat down with Ashley Domm of Bread for the City to talk about ways her organization is working to help the citizens of our nation's capitol who are struggling to find a place to live. They also discuss solutions for supporting people that face homelessness and housing insecurity that could be applied nationwide. And a classic clip from George Carlin helps highlight the issue as brilliantly as he always does.
If you want to know more about how you can help address the issue of housing insecurity, go to Bread for the City's website which lists tools for advocacy and more!
