Street Soccer USA started in Charlotte, North Carolina by brothers Lawrence and Rob Cann in 2004. Initially conceived as a local programme at a soup kitchen, the organisation has since grown to help over 15,000 children and adults in 14 cities around the country.

In this episode of the Homeless World Cup Podcast we speak to SSUSA programme manager Reed Fox. As well as exploring SSUSA’s rapid development, we look at their theory of change model, the Ladies First initiative, and their innovative response to the lockdown.

Just a slight warning, there is one instance of mild language being used in this episode.
