TAKING PRIDE - The 'Lost-n-Found' story: combatting LGBTQIA+ youth homelessness

Lost-n-Found Youth - an Atlanta-based organization working to take LGBTQIA+ young adults off the streets, provide them shelter and guidance to find their way to sustainability, is guided by executive director Melanea Alvarez, who joined me today to share the organization's backstory, and give a thorough audio tour of all the organization - known in thrifting circles for its popular thrift store - does for unhoused LGBTQIA+ youth.

We also discuss the challenges an organization like LnFY faces in less-than-ideal political circumstances.
