13: A Home Of Their Own

We question the tender topic of houselessness here, where the focus is providing humane, safe and legal sheltering options for Central Oregon’s growing homeless population. James Cook and Bob Bohac, of Oasis Village, discuss in-depth what it takes to realistically support such a project and how funds can be dedicated in order to build a bridge for the houseless out of camps and into homes of their own.Originally aired on October 20, 2021 on KPOV’s The Wednesday PointOur mission at KPOV is to strengthen community, the arts, local culture, and democracy through our independent, non-commercial radio portal.
