On this episode, Chavonne Taylor speaks with the owners and founders of Word of Life Christian Bookstore. The bookstore was founded by Joseph and Evelyn Curtiss in 1961 following their move to South LA during the Great Migration. As the oldest operating Black Bookstore in Los Angeles, it has become a community pillar, managed and now owned by their son Jonathan Curtiss and his wife LaShalle, who celebrate 35 years of marriage. Alongside their two adult sons, they ensure the bookstore's growth and its mission to support the community through connections with over 500 churches and faith-based organizations. The Curtiss family's dedication extends through the United Gospel Outreach, a nonprofit offering essential services to South LA families, established by Joseph and Evelyn in 1968.Resources:www.shopwordoflife.com6321 West Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90043323-295-8223Community AnnouncementsSCOPE Seeds of Unity FestSaturday, April 20th from 11am to 3pm at Harvard Park Located at 1535 W. 62nd StreetLink to register: https://secure.everyaction.com/grvfVypwikK9xqN1Co52kQ2Crenshaw Farmers MarketEvery Saturday from 10am - 3pm (rain or shine)Located in the Historic Fire Station 54 parking lot at 5730 Crenshaw Blvd (off of Crenshaw and Slauson, adjacent to U.S. Bank)Link: foodaccessla.org/crenshaw-farmers-marketSit Down with a Staffer Resources:Economic and Development Workforce Department (ewddlacity.com)Vermont Slauson Economic Development Corporation (vsedc.org)My LA 311 (myla311.lacity.org)

In this Podcast we interview Caroline Bernard Moxley about the work she has been doing to address the problem of homelessness. In the interview we will discuss the general problem of homelessness, the extent of it and its causes. But we will also look at solutions and especially the importance of Streetlink that brings together referrals from the general public who wish to do something and the agencies that have to respond. Streetlink is a way of networking this together. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/globalnet21/message

ReThink Tech: Providing you the latest and greatest of how humans AI to soon help and power our people to tackle the problem of homelessness. StreetLink, a homelessness charity that enables members of the public to connect people sleeping rough with local services that can support them, along with a team of data scientists backed by the Alan Turing Institute, has recently been looking into how machine learning could help improve the decision-making process that goes on in homelessness support. Currently, In Los Angeles, homelessness is measured on a much larger scale than what we are witnessing in the U.K. StreetLink’s project would be a smaller-scale version of what is already being used in Los Angeles. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/rethinktech/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/rethinktech/support

On this episode of Humans of Chelmsford we meet Sarah Payne and Chris Starbrook who are both currently homeless and sleeping rough in the city.For 24 hours I joined them and lived life as a fellow rough sleeper for 24 hours to gauge an insight into what life is actually like on the street.In doing so I found out all about the lives and backgrounds of Sarah and Chris who have both been without a home for a number of years now.Over my day spent with them I also learn very quickly just what life is like in a world without any order or any rules – it gets crazy.With the death of Rob O’Connor in February following a night of freezing cold temperatures, and Cool to be Kind Chelmsford’s estimation in July that there are 48 rough sleepers in the city centre alone, the city has been thrust into the homeless spotlight like never before.At the start of 2018, official government statistics showed that Essex as a whole had seen a staggering increase of 276 per cent in people sleeping out on the streets since records began in 2010.But behind the statistics, and the numbers, what is sleeping rough actually like?That’s why I took the step of living life out on the streets for 24 hours because it is often said you can only fully know by experiencing it.Chelmsford City Council’s responseCouncillor Paul Hutchinson, Cabinet Member for Housing, said, “Homelessness has been a rising problem nationally for some years now and, like all local housing authorities, Chelmsford has both a duty and a strong sense of responsibility to provide advice and to help people to avoid becoming homeless wherever possible.“Most of our homelessness work is not visible: for example, working with people whose landlords have given them notice to leave or who are ‘sofa surfing’, and our Housing team prevent around 300 people becoming homeless each year. However, we also work alongside other agencies to try to help the small number of people who are sleeping rough in the city.“Rough sleeping can only be ended if organisations like the Council, police, local charities and others work together and have the co-operation of the person involved.“In some cases, there are very complex needs which are stopping someone from taking up or keeping accommodation.“Unless the right support and services are in place and are engaged with, people are often unable or unwilling to take on or cope with the responsibilities which come with maintaining accommodation.“We have commissioned CHESS Homeless, a local charity, to run outreach services in the Chelmsford area. They use their vast experience with homelessness to go out onto the streets, respond to referrals from members of the public through Streetlink, and repeatedly offer each rough sleeper help to get off the street.“CHESS also offers an emergency night shelter, clothing and hygiene facilities, which help with people’s immediate needs, but for those willing to engage, they also provide consistent, patient help over a period of time.“This includes a change programme, counselling, one-to-one mentoring, support and treatment for any substance issues, and help getting and keeping a home. We also fund CHESS’ Winter Project, providing extra emergency accommodation in cold weather.“We share information with local charities, police and other organisations to develop an understanding of each person’s background and needs so we can help them as an individual – our experience tells us applying a blanket approach does not work as homelessness is complex and caused by many different factors for different people.“This can take time, but has helped many people. As an example, one person who was living on the street recently responded well to patient and repeated engagement from Council and CHESS staff. They agreed to return to their property and are being supported with regards to stability, and help was also given to end domestic violence issues at home.“If you are concerned about somebody ...
