Dr. Vanessa Fry is a founding member of the Idaho Policy Center and came on to discuss the research and strategy her group put together to address the homeless situation in the Treasure Valley and Idaho. There is a large anxiety throughout Idaho that the homeless tragedy in the coastal states will make its way here, and Vanessa broke down what fundamentally causes these issues and what Idaho can do to avoid them while saving tens of millions of dollars.
