Each year, more than 80,000 people face homelessness in the City of Chicago alone. While there are provisions in place to help, the challenge persists. 

On this episode, I am linking up with Tim Jones, who serves as the Executive Director of Good News Partners, a housing continuum that provides affordable housing to the homeless in Chicago, serving over 500 residents a year. Tim shares insights relative to the growing homeless population and some of the root causes - - all of which provides a microscopic view in of a much larger problem across the U.S.
