Homelessness is a huge problem in California. Tent cities are taking over the streets of major metropolitan areas. According to the 2020 Homeless Assessment Report, more than 50% of the US’s homeless are in California. Can anything be done to actually address the root causes of this growing crisis? And for that matter, what ARE the root causes? Are the homeless just average people, down on their luck, who can’t catch a break?

In this episode of the Educate For Life Show, Kevin talks to Bill Wells, the Mayor of El Cajon. Bill has a lot of experience dealing with the homeless in his city, and trying to offer them a way to get off the street. He shares his experiences to answer the toughest questions about this issue: what really causes homelessness? Does California’s government really want the problem to decrease? Is it a good thing for churches to go to homeless encampments and offer free resources? Tune in for an informed discussion on all that and more.

This episode first aired on July 1, 2021.

Educate For Life with Kevin Conover airs Saturdays at 12pm. Listen live on KPRZ.com and San Diego radio AM 1210.
