Stories of the Aging Unhoused with Michael Larson

Older adults (55+) are the fastest growing demographic of people falling into homelessness across the country. They have names and stories. They are sons and daughters, brothers and sisters, moms and dads. If we aren’t exposed to their stories and their humanity, we fall into the dangerous habit of dehumanizing a population and seeing them only for the problems they cause.

Humans for Housing is working to bring curiosity and diverse perspectives to this issue in a way that inspires action and advocacy. Michael Larson will be sharing some of the stories of older adults either on the edge or who are currently experiencing homelessness, and why this issue holds a personal passion for him. He'll present the data about why this population is growing at a faster rate than any other demographic and some of the targeted interventions we can make to ensure we begin to reverse these trends.
