After a long hiatus, UtU returns with this discussion with Executive Director Cassy Basham of the good work being done by Camp Graves. Camp Graves is a homeless outreach service that connects those experiencing homelessness in rural Kentucky with temporary housing, services, and the chance to find independence and self-reliance. Cassy & I discuss how the facility started, where their mission comes from and their plan for continuing support for the unhoused in KY. More info on their work can be found at the link below!

Mama G (San Francisco, CA)
Here comes my chat with Mama G, a resilient, resourceful & resplendent resident of the streets of San Francisco. For over a decade, Mama G has used her various skills to the benefit of anyone she comes across on the streets who is suffering. Now homeless herself, Mama G remains strong & confident in her complete nonjudgemental approach to this life. I hope her story gives you inspiration and hope! Thank you for listening all the way through!
