Homelessness services took center stage during Austin’s Proposition Q debate. After the measure’s resounding defeat, the city moved quickly to pass a new budget that maintains existing programs, but will it be enough? With Austin’s unhoused population continuing to grow, what comes next for the city and the people on the frontlines? Host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by Mark Hilbelink, lead pastor and executive director of Sunrise Homeless Navigation Center; and Lenny Barszap, co-founder of Been There, to discuss the city’s current strategies, the challenges that remain, and ultimately, whose responsibility it is to care for our unhoused neighbors.
