Podcasts about homeless people

Our final episode of this Courage My Friends season features a December 10th Human Rights Day Panel Discussion, the first of a series of events celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Community Worker Program at Toronto's George Brown College. Community workers and human rights advocates, Brianna Olson Pitawanakwat, Samira Mohyeddin, Diana Gallego, Desmond Cole and Diana Chan McNally discuss the meaning of human rights in Canada 77 years after the UN adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, critical issues facing us today and the power of solidarity-driven, rights-based organizing. Speaking to Canada's approach to human rights, Pitawanakwat says: "A big wakeup call was a couple of days ago when the UN passed the International Day Against Colonialism and Canada abstained. Because Canada is very much still rooted in this colonial mechanism and ideology here … In Anishinaabe culture, we don't rely on the idea of rights, rights are a European construct. We rely on the idea of responsibility … If we relied on human rights, we would be in a dismal place, which is where we are today." According to Chan McNally: "Every time you see an encampment that is someone exercising their right to housing by literally making their own tent.We have downloaded the responsibility directly on homeless people to ensure their own rights. And criminalizing even that action of survival ... It's ludicrous, ludicrous to me." Speaking to the importance of community work, Cole says: "People are doing it in this school and in this program. The reason that I always say yes, when you ask me to come here … I was homeless myself more than 20 years ago when I moved to this city. Somebody who took a community worker program referred me to a youth shelter and changed my life. For real." On the role of independent journalism, Mohyeddin reflects on her upcoming documentary about the pro-Palestine student encampment at UofT: "Our corporate media was vilifying these young people. And you know, my motto for journalism has always been to 'Make mad the guilty and appall the free.' And I think that if we operate from that place, even as citizens, we can really make a change." On the power of solidarity, Gallego says: "The system want us being isolated. Solidarity is a word they trying to penalize … Solidarity is going and bringing the power that the Indigenous community have with the Palestinian movement. Bringing the solidarity of the unions back to us, back to the people.Being a community worker … Being the first face that a refugee is seeing in Canada and seeing the welcoming and seeing the support, means a lot."

Met Éireann has warned the tempatures could drop as low as -3 degrees overnight. Dublin City council say the cold weather strategy has been activated for people who are homeless. For more on this the CEO of the Dublin Simon Community, Catherine Kenny.

Auckland Central MP Chlöe Swarbrick has raised concerns with the Government's proposed solutions for rough sleepers - and says they won't solve the actual problem at hand. While details are scarce, reports show the Government and Auckland Council are working on moving homeless people out of public spaces in the CBD for destructive behaviour. Chlöe Swarbrick says it's time to get to the core root issues and invest in sensible solutions. "Right now, it seems like, really, the only place these people can end up being put is being held overnight in the cells. Again, that doesn't go anywhere near towards resolving the problem."

An online reaction to our series in the Winnipeg Sun on homeless encampment mayhem and failed government policies has raised an important question for Episode 54- are governments actually bringing homeless people into Winnipeg?Part 1- A recap of recent Sun columns and podcasts, and a reflection on the 15 years since our last broadcast on 92.9 KICK-FM.Part 2- A source with access to the Homeless Individuals and Families Information System (HIFIS) says that asylum/refugee claimants coming to Canada are "entitled to not only whatever benefits they may receive being refugees, but then all the benefits entitled to homeless as well." "Between October 2024 and April of this year we doubled our active case files from 5.5k to 11k... these people are entered and processed mostly by End Homelessness Winnipeg themselves or agencies that support new comers."Episode 54 will make you wonder- why haven't we heard from corporate broadcasters funded by the Liberal government about how homeless aboriginal and other Canadians are left waiting for assistance on riverbanks, while foreign nationals allowed into our country by the Liberal government cut in line ahead of them? We certainly never heard about it from the recently-departed homelessness czar of the NDP, Tessa Blaikie Whitecloud.*******On November 14th Marty Gold is going to compete in the biggest wrestling match in Canada - the CWE 50 Man Rumble To Remember!Presented by Canadian Wrestling's Elite, the event at the Ukrainian Labour Temple offers a great reward to the last man standing- a CWE Championship match at the February supercard.A limited number of discounted tickets are available for listeners of the podcast and for readers of our columns in the Sun – email martygoldlive@gmail.com for more details and see Marty in action!

Well, it has been a while since the last Crossing Division podcast. We felt we were becoming too cynical about our local government, and we needed a break (check out Kitchen253.com). But these are hard...

President Trump is promising to sweep homeless people off America's streets. One controversial part of his plan could force thousands of people into institutions where they would be treated “long-term” for for addiction and mental illness. Critics say the policy raises big concerns about civil liberties and cost. But parts of this idea - known as “civil commitment” are gaining traction with some Democratic leaders.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.

As a part of President Trump's takeover of policing in the nation's capital, he has pledged to remove homeless people and encampments from the city. White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said homeless people who don’t leave the city will face punishment in the form of fines and jail time. Cities across the country are struggling  with how to regulate homeless camping, including in the Pacific Northwest. We take this moment to listen back to several conversations we had with people living on the streets of Portland and Vancouver about how they think homelessness should be regulated.    Back in 2022, then Portland mayor Ted Wheeler pledged to create several huge sanctioned homeless camps at the edges of the city and threatened to send people who wouldn’t go to those camps to jail. OPB’s “Think Out Loud” spent a day on the streets of Portland asking people how they felt about the plan.   Earlier this winter, OPB’s “Think Out Loud” spent a morning with staff and volunteers of the Council for Homeless as they participated in the Point-in-Time count in Vancouver, Washington.  The Point-in-Time count is a federally required snapshot of how many people are experiencing homelessness in a given area.

A looming deadline hangs over a group of homeless people living on a church's grounds. Advocates said those living in a carpark at Holy Trinity Avonside in Christchurch have nowhere else to go. But the Christchurch City Council said it's not a camping ground and the church has two days to stop treating it as such.Timothy Brown reports.

Seven years ago, in September 2018, the Government approached a company called Brimwood Ltd asking for help to secure extra accommodation in hotels and B & Bs for asylum seekers.While the number of international protection applicants arriving in Ireland was significantly lower at that time when compared with today – nearly 6,000 in 2018 compared with almost 33,000 in 2025 – the State's direct provision system had reached full capacity and needed temporary additional beds.Brimwood Ltd, which is now unlimited and so does not have to publish financial accounts where it might show the profits it makes, is run by Séamus ‘Banty' McEnaney and his two daughters Sarah and Laura. It is just one of a number of companies owned by the wider McEnaney family which provide accommodation for asylum seekers and homeless people.Before 2018, McEnaney's name was synonymous with Monaghan GAA, but these days, the businessman is more likely to be associated with the State's asylum system.How did McEnaney build up his property empire and how much have his family's companies earned through the provision of emergency accommodation?And who is to blame for the lucrative contracts being paid to secure this accommodation – private operators or the Government?Today, on In The News, how one family earned millions from housing refugees and homeless people.Irish Times reporters Colm Keena and Sorcha Pollak discuss their investigation into the McEnaney family's earnings and how the State has become so reliant on private operators to house refugees and the homeless.Presented by Aideen Finnegan.

Club Inc. in Idaho Falls has been helping people out of homelessness since 1988. Student Reporter Cody Miller interviewed Robert Swiston, the access point director and housing specialist for the nonprofit.

A recent executive order from President Trump calls for sending some mentally ill or addicted homeless people to involuntary treatment, known as civil commitment. Los Angeles homelessness expert John Maceri explains more. And, both Democratic and Republican lawmakers are calling for Trump to address the hunger crisis in Gaza. Nahal Toosi, senior foreign affairs correspondent with Politico, unpacks how the U.S. attitude toward Israel's war in Gaza is shifting. Then, after Harvard University freshman Sarah Silverman's mezuzah went missing from her dorm doorway, the police investigated the incident as a "bias crime," and Trump cited it as a civil rights law violation. Silverman joins us to explain why she thinks Trump's crackdown on Harvard and other universities does not curb antisemitism.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

San Francisco wants to clear the streets of hundreds of RVs where people who can't afford housing are living.

“Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will repay him for his deed.” - Proverbs 19:17As Christians, we're called to be generous, but what does that look like when someone asks for money on the street? Should we give? Is there a better way to help? Today, Dr. David W. Jones joins us to explore the ethics of giving to homeless people and how to show compassion without causing harm.Dr. David W. Jones is Senior Professor of Christian Ethics at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. He holds a Ph.D. in Christian Financial Ethics and is the author of Every Good Thing: An Introduction to the Material World and the Common Good for Christians.A Biblical Call to Care for the PoorScripture is clear about God's concern for the poor and His expectation that we share that concern. Jesus said, “Give to the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you” (Matthew 5:42). The apostle John echoed this, writing, “If anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?” (1 John 3:17).We should want to help those in need. The real question isn't whether we help, but how.Before we give, we should examine our hearts, because our initial reaction may often be judgmental, as we may assume that the person is lazy or addicted. But Dr. Jones calls this being “middle class in spirit”. Christ doesn't call us to be “middle class in spirit”—He calls us to be “poor in spirit” (Matthew 5:3).This shift in mindset is essential. Even if someone is unworthy of help, that's the very reason we should want to help them. What if God waited until we deserved His grace?Is It Wrong to Give Cash?That leads to the practical question: Should we give cash to someone on the street? While the act of providing cash isn't inherently wrong, it could enable harmful behavior.Instead, it may be more beneficial to prepare in advance by carrying granola bars or other non-perishable food items. Offer something that meets a need without enabling sin. If you have the time, offer to buy them a meal instead.This kind of planned generosity helps believers act as good stewards, offering love without ignoring potential consequences.But what if the person uses the money responsibly? Should we just leave that up to God?There's a balance because we can't know everything about someone's situation in a brief moment, but we are still called to be wise and loving. That means doing what we can with what we know, and entrusting the rest to the Lord.When a Handout Becomes a RelationshipSometimes, opportunities arise to do more than just meet an immediate need. Perhaps that involves building long-term relationships with individuals experiencing poverty or homelessness. These acts of sustained compassion often lead to deep transformation when we take the time to build a relationship with those who are struggling. This is an example of a development-based model of helping the poor, which contrasts with an aid-based model (like giving money or food on the spot). If a natural disaster causes poverty, aid is appropriate. However, if it's due to systemic injustice or poor choices, long-term involvement—such as discipleship, mentoring, and support—may be necessary.Overwhelmed by Need? Start With What's NearA common question is: Where do I even begin? The need is everywhere.The law of moral proximity encourages that we are most responsible for those closest to us. You may not be able to fix world hunger, but you can help someone in your neighborhood, church, or community.Big problems require big solutions, but God calls us to care for what's in front of us first.Our goal isn't just charity—it's Christlike love, expressed with wisdom. When we begin by checking our hearts, planning for wise giving, and staying open to deeper relationships, we reflect God's grace in practical ways.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I was affected by the Windfall Elimination Provision, but recently received a lump sum check related to that. They also increased my monthly benefit by $700, though taxes are being withheld. What should I know about how the lump sum will be treated?I'm 47 and just starting my career after being a stay-at-home mom. My new job offers a 403(b) and will match up to 3%, but only after I've been there a year. Should I start contributing now, or wait until the matching begins?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Every Good Thing: An Introduction to the Material World and the Common Good for Christians by Dr. David W.

People have thrown a phone and even a microwave at the store's exterior. There has been violence toward staff from shoplifters. In just two years of business, Double Down, a skate zine turned vintage-clothing outlet on Valencia Street, has had its share of abuse. “Constantly, there's people who want to destroy the shop for no reason,” said Alexis Moore, who works there. Until recently, Double Down owner Diana Musa and Moore tried to respond with compassion. Those who entered the shop and appeared to be in need were offered food or clothing. Then, the situation took a nauseating turn. A person in green pants is cleaning a wet sidewalk by a storefront with a chalkboard sign. The area is dimly lit, with various items displayed in the window. Musa spreads water around before closing up to discourage people from sleeping in the doorway. | Source:Minh Connors for The Standard Two people sleep on the sidewalk under blankets beside a building, while a person walks by. A lit sign and a window with bars are visible on the wall.

Una Burns, head of advocacy with the Limerick-based Novas, tells us how the homeless charity responded to last night's cold snap.

Over the past week or so we have heard reports out of Los Angeles of homeless people being targeted and killed by some madman that authorities are saying could be a serial killer. Whats more, is that there are the same reports now coming out of Las Vegas where one man was killed and four others wounded when someone opened fire at a local homeless encampment. Now authorities are trying to figure out if these attacks are connected or if there are two psychopaths on the loose.
