Matt doesn't understand why shelters kick people out every morning in the dark when it's still freezing cold. While we all await for election results in Nevada and elsewhere, he struggles every morning with this stark reality. On this podcast, we ask can't we do better as a society. And we give the microphone to people like Matt, recently divorced, in a bad accident, having lost his retail job, in a wheelchair, now on the streets of Reno. Our reporter for this episode is Scott King.
Our Town Reno
With audio postcards from the streets, and inspiring interviews with community activists, we address issues of homelessness, the disappearance of public space, gentrification and the value of helping each other out from our base in Reno, Nevada. We do live reporting, micro storytelling and spoken word. As we face an affordable housing crisis, what happens to our most vulnerable?
