S7E13 - From Homelessness to Hope

Episode 13: From Homelessness to Hope

Homelessness has long been an issue in Columbia. According to the city’s most recent count, around 840 people are unsheltered in and around the downtown area. Although the number of people without a home has decreased in the last decade… the number of homeless families is rising. In this episode of Columbia Chronicles, reporter Carter Godfrey introduces us to a man who understands what it’s like to be homeless… and has spent much of his life trying to make a change.

Produced and edited by Molly Stover; final production by Ava A. Strauss
