Welcome to today’s episode, “On the Corner of Homelessness & Talking to Kids ”. Hosts Joe Ader and Emma Hughes welcome a very special guest, Kama Einhorn, Senior Director of Content Design for Sesame Workshop’s Research, Education, Data & Impact group to talk about how and when to talk to children about homelessness.
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.
Guest: Kama Einhorn from Sesame Workshop
