Why You Don’t See Portland’s Thousands of Homeless Families
Description
We often talk about Portland’s homelessness crisis in terms of the tents and encampments we see on our streets. But there’s another side of this crisis that’s far less visible: families with children. Today we’re talking with Brandi Tuck, executive director of Path Home. It's one of the only local nonprofits dedicated exclusively to serving families experiencing homelessness. We’ll talk about what's being done, and why families are often overlooked and left out of the broader conversation in our region.
