Hello Houston: The Commuter Cut is your connection to the heart of the Bayou City, but shorter, for our busy commuters. Every weekday, we dive deep into the stories that matter to Houstonians — from breaking local news to cultural happenings, community voices, and the everyday joys and challenges of life in our vibrant city.
In today's edition of "The Commuter Cut," Ernie, Celeste, and Frank discuss the growing sex trafficking problem in Houston with Rania Mankarious, CEO of Crime Stoppers of Houston, who explains what’s being done to address this issue.
Then, they are joined by Hope Guidry Groves, Vice President of Experience and Product Operations for the National Marrow Donation Program, who tells us about their work connecting patients in need of a transplant with a matched donor.
