California has the highest homeless population of any state in the nation. Governor Newsom has poured over $24 billion dollars into solving the issue, yet the problem still persists. One city mayor is proposing a new solution, but it’s already receiving backlash. I’m your host Tess Abraham, and we’ll be looking at the homelessness crisis across California, what approaches have been tried in our state so far, and principles for how to think about addressing homelessness on this week’s episode of The California Conversation!
