Ep. 23 Why Are People Homeless? Delving into Causes & Solutions

We dive deep into the intricate world of homelessness in America this week. We discuss how homelessness varies in prevalence from state to state, highlighting California’s unfortunate status as the state with the most significant homeless population. We also explore the lesser-known details, like North Dakota’s position on the opposite end of the spectrum and how, when adjusted for population size, Washington DC reveals the most alarming per capita homelessness rate. We explore the root causes—addiction, the daunting challenge of rent affordability, and unemployment. 

This episode is packed with discussions on actionable solutions geared towards mitigating this social issue, spotlighting innovative strategies like targeted job creation, conditional state aid, revitalization of state mental health facilities, and incentivization programs aimed at boosting employment. 

Join us in this insightful and eye-opening discussion, as we aim to uncover the layers and propose meaningful actions to address homelessness across the United States.
