It's clear that physical health and homelessness are linked, but how exactly do they interact?For many, a bad accident or injury can catapult someone into a world of homelessness, and for others, dealing with ongoing poverty and lack of resources can lead to declining health problems.

No matter what, caring for someone's physical health needs is a key part of helping them work their way out of homelessness. In today's episode, Jack Crowley, President of Water Street Mission sits down with Chip Mershon of Penn State Health Cornerstone and our own Jean Benedict, Director of Medical Services and Nurse Care Management at Water Street Health Services to discuss why physical health is so key, and how to support guests in this way.

Stabilization is the process of gradually helping someone who is in a state of high alert and panic, to come down and recognize they are in a safe place. This process is highly important to emergency shelters because experiencing homelessness can both aggravate and create mental health issues.

Through a conversation with Rebecca Dempsey, a Licensed Mental Health Professional and Psychotherapist with Wellspan Philhaven, we discuss how fight or flight mode impacts our guests. Then, we sit down with Tjwana Reed, Director of Access & Case Management at Water Street Mission, to examine what stabilization looks like in the first 7 days at Water Street.

Fred McNaughton & Lisa Landis welcome Water Street Mission to The Get Up and Go Show!
Known for his ability to drive men up the rigging of sailing ships by the sheer force of his physical prowess, “Rowdy” ships out of New York and other ports around the world. Sailors are afraid of him. He fights off death and danger – even beating his former ship's captain within an inch of his life. Then through the testimony of some of his former shipmates in the Water Street Mission of New York, he comes face to face with Jesus Christ, Who turns this fearsome hulk of a man into a winsome witness to the saving power of Christ, showing there are no cases too tough for God to reach.
