Episode 21
The holiday season is in full swing and for this episode, we talked with Tracey Hair, the executive director of the H.O.M.E. Co-op in Orland, which oversees the Emmaus Homeless Shelter in Ellsworth. We discussed the work the local shelter is doing to combat emergency homelessness and develop affordable housing, how folks can lend a hand during and after the holidays and overcoming stigmas.
