Theo interviews Fred Vars, author of Through the Fire: How People with Mental Illness Are Empowering Each Other on the intersection of houselessness and mental illness, and how failures at city, state, and federal levels to put housing first makes it more difficult than ever to be unhoused in the U.S. Also: an upcoming screening at Crushing Wheelchairs, a film with an unhoused cast and crew, and the long-term consequences of Spencer Pratt's ghoulish anti-unhoused language.
