This week we’re hearing from Kansas City’s Homeless Prevention Coordinator, Josh Henges, as he talks about upcoming plans in the KC area and his position as Homeless Prevention Coordinator.
He shares with Northeast News editorial assistant, EllieAna Hale, about what he wishes to see in Kansas City and how the surrounding community can take a more active role in the Kansas City area as we navigate through the homelessness crisis, while also discussing the true issues and state of being of the homeless population in Kansas City.
