They Don’t Just Share Their Story—They Make the Decisions
Dee Martineau and Rico Morales are part of Hennepin County’s Lived Experience Advisory Group—a rare example of a system that doesn’t just ask for input, but actually gives decision-making power to people with lived experience of homelessness.
In this moving and eye-opening conversation, they share their personal journeys, challenge tokenism, and show us what real equity looks like when those most impacted are trusted to lead.
TThis powerful podcast conversation comes from our documentary, “Can We End Homelessness? Hennepin County Shows How.” Watch the full film here: https://youtu.be/yq1C8l4uSZc?si=wURzO38s_uxgeDw_
