Meet Bruno, executive director of the STP Foundation in LA. He tells us what its like to start and run a diversion program with City Hall during a pandemic & how funds that would've gone to the PD can be used to turn lives around. We learn the steps he took to help get the houseless people off of the "Skid Row of Venice" (the 2nd highest concentration of people living on the streets in LA). What about the history of the most famous graffiti walls in the world (he's in charge of those too), & what its like to go to CYA instead of high school (he tells us). How do you go from CYA & county jails to GOOGLE calling you in to meet you because GOOGLE  Googled you? We hear it all plus a deep dive into the homeless situation in LA & Venice as Bruno is also on the Venice neighborhood council. Theres also a stabbing story & a bunch of memories of Venice back in the days.
