South Dakotans respond to housing insecurity

On today's show...

Every person who shows up at the Bishop Dudley Hospitality House in Sioux Falls gets connected to a network of help — and they get counted.

Executive director Madeline Shields unpacks the causes of homelessness that she sees. She talks about the numbers and possible solutions of the issue (1:00 to 26:31).

Plus, we bring you an excerpt of the Regional Homelessness Forum in Sioux Falls from January (26:32 to 49:30).

South Dakota Department of Social Services Secretary Matt Althoff, Sioux Falls Housing Executive Director Larissa Deedrich, Sioux Falls Mayor Paul TenHaken and Minnehaha County Commissioner Dean Karsky join the conversation.

Listen to the full forum.
