12/6/201329:18
As temperatures drop, how are Seattle`s homeless coping? The county`s Ten-Year Plan to End Homelessness is in its eighth year. Is the plan on track? What new strategies are the city and county pursuing to help this growing population? We meet James Phillips, a recently homeless man, who shares his insights about living on the streets. Our in-studio guests include Bill Hobson, executive director of the Downtown Emergency Service Center; Tim Harris, publisher of the homeless newspaper Real Change; Megan Gibbard, the Homeless Youth and Young Adult Initiative project manager for King County; and Vince Matulionis, director of ending homelessness for United Way of King County.
