In this episode, host Anne Miskey delves into the causes of the rise in homelessness among the Latino community. Joined by Dr. Melissa Chinchilla, Health Services Researcher with the Department of Veterans Affairs, and Adrian De Leon, Associate Director, Recovery Housing with Union Station Homeless Services, the discussion revolves around the question of how can we respond to meet the unique needs of Latino people experiencing homelessness. What are the service and resource gaps as well as the policy roadblocks that this community faces? You will also hear William’s personal story of becoming homeless, after caring for his grandmother. William was able to get the help he needed and now he is using his life experience to be an outreach worker on the Metro to help others in the Latino community who are experiencing homelessness.
