EP 25: Inspiring Solutions for Families Experiencing Homelessness: Christine Mirasy-Glasco and the Uplifting Upward Bound House

Crazy Amazing Humans

There is not one human being who feels happy when they see another human being living on the street– it’s safe to say that we all agree homelessness is something everyone cares about and no one is for.

If you’ve ever been moved with compassion for families with children experiencing homelessness and wondered what can be done, then this inspiring episode is for you! Join us as we speak with positive and innovative Christine Mirasy-Glasco from Upward Bound House. She shares the successes they’ve seen at UBH as they address this issue in Los Angeles and remind us of our common humanity. UBH provides housing, training, and support, helping families get back on their feet and become self-sufficient. Going beyond physical needs, they address psychological issues such as PTSD from being on the street and the like with love and care. These efforts result in families feeling more stable and hopeful for their futures, many times breaking the cycle of what brought them to homelessness in the first place. Ally Piddock also joins us to highlight Home Run For Kids, their hugely successful, collaborative fundraiser that brings together the entire community.
