Episode 2: The Path Forward – Housing, Compassion, and Women’s Stories

In this powerful episode of The Power of Home, we highlight the voices, solutions, and compassion driving the movement to end homelessness.

We begin with a moving conversation with Rachelle Ellison, a member of Miriam’s Kitchen’s Speakers Bureau, who shares her personal journey through homelessness and her passion for advocacy. This interview, in honor of Women’s History Month, underscores the unique challenges women face—and the strength they carry.

Next, we explore the proven effectiveness of the Housing First model with Sara Taylor Senior Director of Housing from Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) Program, who shares how permanent housing without preconditions transforms lives.

Finally, we discuss the importance of compassion and mental health awareness in addressing homelessness and breaking stigma.

This episode is a reminder that storytelling changes minds, housing changes lives, and everyone deserves a place to call home.
