Last week, homelessness was officially declared a public health crisis in Connecticut. And the lack of affordable housing remains a major issue here in Connecticut. Today, we get an update on affordable housing and hear how some towns are addressing it.
We learn about a housing model known as cohousing, and hear from a co-housing collective based in Massachusetts.
Later, New York Times global health reporter Stephanie Nolen joins us to discuss her year-long trip around the globe to investigate how the world’s most vulnerable communities are addressing mosquito-borne diseases.
GUESTS:
- Ginny Monk: Housing and Children’s Issues for the Connecticut Mirror
- Yochai Gal: resident at Rocky Hill Cohousing in North Hampton, Massachusetts
- Stephanie Nolen: Global Health reporter for The New York Times
