Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
It’s been nearly one year since D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty announced plans to move hundreds of the city’s chronically homeless residents into permanent housing. The program is one of a number around the country that provide the homeless with apartments — without requiring them to participate in psychiatric or addiction counseling beforehand. Join Kojo as we learn more about the program, who it serves, and whether it’s making a dent in the number of people living on the streets.
Guests
- Linda Kaufman Chief Operating Officer, Pathways to Housing D.C.
- Robert Miles Client, Pathways to Housing D.C.
