There were almost 59,000 homeless people counted in Los Angeles County last year and this year's count is underway. On this episode of Inside the Issues we talk to people who are working to help alleviate the crisis.

Cristian Ahumada, Executive Director of Clifford Beers Housing, and L.A. City Councilmember Marqueece Harris-Dawson talk about a new housing development called Isla Intersections, which aims to not only provide housing to those in need but aims to bring a sense of community to South L.A.

 

Crissy Yancey, Director of Impact Communications and Events from Everyone In, talks about the evolution of the campaign, a community engagement initiative that will “give Angelenos one place to track and measure progress toward ending homelessness.”
