Description

Governor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order authorizing state officials to dismantle thousands of homeless encampments throughout the state. DignityMoves has been at the forefront of providing dignified, supportive housing for those in need, making Elizabeth Funk uniquely positioned to discuss the ramifications of the executive order and the impact it will have on California's homelessness strategy.

 

About Guest: Elizabeth Funk is the Founder of Dignity Moves — a philanthropy that designs and implements housing communities at scale.

This is a group of entrepreneurs that think way outside the box—applying real life solutions to a solvable homelessness crisis, beginning in California, where there are 172,000 homeless people—30% of the U.S. homeless population.
