In this first episode of the show we begin with an in-depth exploration of the current Homelessness challenge facing the Chico Ca. community. Our first guest is Joy Amaro – Executive Director of the Torres Shelter in Chico, California.

Their mission, “Torres Community Shelter exists to move people forward in their lives. We do this through providing transformational services to people experiencing, or at risk of experiencing, homelessness. We do this through a proven formula of compassion + dignity + accountability.”

For those new to how this challenge is being approached, this is a great primer episode that will prep you for the rest in our multi-part series.
