Did you know that one in six hospitality workers live below the poverty line? On today's episode of On the Corner of Homeless & Hospitality, hosts Joe Ader and Emma Hughes talk with Chris Deitz of Big Table to explore the challenges facing this industry and how many of its employees are at risk of housing insecurity.
Homelessness is a complex issue. We don’t claim to explore every part of this intersection, but hope that each conversation brings new clarity to the reality as a whole. Please keep an open, curious mindset as you listen, and seek to learn, just as we are.
