In this powerful episode, Misty Bosch-Hastings and Barry Feaker welcome Becky Lagger-Dyer, a nurse practitioner with Lawrence-Douglas County Public Health and a core member of the Homeless Response Team (HRT). Becky shares how she brings both medical and psychiatric care directly to unsheltered individuals, building trust and bridging critical service gaps.
Her personal journey - from a teen mom on public assistance to a 6 degree having, dual-certified nurse practitioner - is as inspiring as the impact she makes in the field. The team also celebrates a major win: a woman in crisis saying yes to treatment after months of outreach.
Someone once believed Becky had more to offer - and now, she’s the one planting that belief in others every day.
