Housing First

How do you fight homelessness? With a home. This time we take you inside a revolutionary progam called Pathways To Housing, which gives its clients housing first, in combination with mental health and wellness programs. We also explore the cycle of poverty and homelessless and trace the history of institutionalization in America. Plus we hear from real-life Pathways clients who have turned their lives around and are working to build a caring, supportive community, not just in New York City but all over the world. We talk with Pathways founder Sam Tsemberis and psychiatrist Burt Pepper among others.
