For this episode, we wanted to do something a little different. We hosted a special edition of Fort Worth Forward at Ridglea Theater and focused on homelessness. The 200+ audience in attendance heard about the amazing resources and opportunities available throughout Fort Worth and Tarrant County.
Homelessness is an issue facing every major urban environment. Fort Worth is looking at how to solve this issue in a humane way, while at the same time working to keep our city safe and clean. Many non-profits and businesses are working together with government entities to address.
