 Voices from the Shadows:
      Homelessness in a Rural Community

Listen to this amazing series that was broadcast April 6 – May 25 2023.

In 2022-2023, volunteers from the radio station interviewed more than 60 individuals in and around the local homeless community and the organizations who serve them. These are the voices of homelessness, past and present, and the people trying to help them today. Their stories are, in turn, uplifting, surprising, and gut-wrenching.

The series was made possible by a grant from the Community Radio Fund of Canada.
