"Homeless" is one of the most dehumanizing labels we use—reducing nearly a million unique lives to a single, harmful stereotype. We’re three friends seeking to better understand the housing crisis and its root causes. In this series, we speak with people who have experienced homelessness, along with social workers, mental health professionals, researchers, law enforcement, and everyday community members trying to make sense of a complex issue.

Ep. 9 - The Bigger Picture: Louis Harris on DEI, Public Policy, and the Complexities of Homelessness

Homelessness isn’t just about not having a roof over your head—it’s shaped by a mix of economic, emotional, and societal factors. In this episode, we chat with Louis Harris about how diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) connect to housing, and why public policy is such a big piece of the puzzle.

Louis shares stories and insights that help people see homelessness from a new perspective—one that looks beyond stereotypes and focuses on the real, often hidden, challenges people face. We talk about how communities can work together, why systemic barriers matter, and how compassion and policy can create lasting change.
