For our November episode, we are joined by Angela D'Orazio, Senior Program Officer for Housing at the Sisters of Charity Foundation of Cleveland. Through grants, technical assistance, convening, advocacy, and policy initiatives, Angela's work in striving to end chronic homelessness and youth homelessness has resulted in state and local collaboration to meet the needs of the unhoused community. Angela has worked closely on an initiative called A Place 4 Me, which brings together diverse community partners to collectively prevent and end youth homelessness, especially among youth who have aged out of the foster care system. Working closely with the program director of A Place 4 Me, Angela co-facilitated a community planning process to develop the Cuyahoga County Strategic Plan to Prevent and End Youth Homelessness. She also works on behalf of the foundation to garner private and public investment to support implementation of the plan.Angela has a Bachelor of Science in psychology and sociology from Kent State University and a Master of Science in social administration (MSSA) from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, OH.Links:1.

Y'all, your co-hosts have just returned from a long night on the Zero -- Kentucky Route Zero, that is! Spencer and Jamie do a little review and excavation of our emotions about this beautiful, haunting, and painfully real series from the folks at cardboard computer that culminated earlier this year after a 7-year journey. This is a generation-defining game that truly defies the bounds of the medium. It's a story about people; but it's also about all of us. It's a masterpiece, and we can't wait to tell you about it (or at least try). Then, we are certifiably BLESSED to have Jamila Bradley (they/them/theirs) in the studio with us, where we discuss the role of gaming in understanding one's place in the world, as well as how Final Fantasy X taught Jamila how to build resilience in themself -- and awakened some other things in them, too! Other topics discussed: Gaming as self-care, Tomb Raider hot takes, learning a little something about yourself, that empath life, badass women, wishing Spira was real, applying the sphere grid to real life, getting through childhood, moving through the systems around us, inclusive design, dreaming about the future, and also like, what is real? About Jamila Jamila Bradley is a non-binary icon! In Massachusetts, they co-authored the State Plan to End Youth Homelessness, and designed critical research initiatives on marginalized youth experiencing homelessness. Jamila has spent YEARS lifting up LGBTQIA+ youth, and as a political and community organizer they have developed language for rallies, protests, and demonstrations together with trans, indigenous, and immigrant activist groups. Oh, you thought that was it? Jamila is also a fragrance artist and an olfactive anthropologist, currently based in Italy where they're exploring the art of fragrance to tell human stories!

Something new this week - we are excited to share another great podcast with you, this time, with Social Impact Advisors as the guest rather than podcast host. Lynn's interview by Mike Mikulak on the United Way Halton & Hamilton's "This Podcast is Not For Profit" was recently published, where she talks about how and why a collective impact approach works, some of the challenges and joys that come from working this way and shares examples of youth-focused collectives in Kingston and Halton. They also talk more broadly about how being clear about and committed to impacts benefits organizations.

In today's episode I talk about Homelessness Action Week. First I talk with a city of Kamloops rep who talks about Project Connect and the importance of promoting services to those less fortunate in our community. I follow that up by speaking with the Executive Director of A Way Home Kamloops and the Past President of the Aurora Rotary Club of Kamloops as they get set for the annual Camp Out to End Youth Homelessness on December 13th. Then I chat with local representative of the Association of Legal Aid Lawyers Graham Kay and Access to Legal Services Committee member Jeff Campbell about a new 2.5 year deal for legal aid lawyers in the province. And to end things off I am joined by the President of the BC Teachers Federation Terri Mooring as school is now in week 7 and teachers in the province remain without a contract.
