The Source episode seven explores a range of stories, including how people with drug addictions can receive holistic help in Philadelphia thanks to the efforts of Project HOME. Plus, learn about why advocates are pushing for more shopping carts for people with disabilities, how a horse fly brought havoc to America 250 years ago, why a program that helps remove lead paint in Delaware is in high demand and how Pennsylvania’s whiskey tradition is growing. Finally, we visit PAWS in the Grays Ferry neighborhood, where the Philadelphia Welfare Society is the city’s largest rescue partner. WHYY News staffers Meir Rinde, Alan Yu, Susan Phillips, Cris Barrish, Zoe Read and Kimberly Paynter contributed to this episode, which is hosted by Kenny Cooper.
