Utah Homelessness Guru Visits Redding

BuzzFarmers

Many areas have more people living in them than homes to hold them all. 

Homelessness is a big issue in many towns.  It's less of an issue in parts of Utah than it used to be, the result of an effort to house people quickly ("housing first"). 

Lloyd Pendeleton is past director of the state of Utah's efforts; he speaks at a forum on homelessness in Reddingon Thursday (Feb. 11). 

It's one of many events he attends--he's highly in demand--and he visits the Exchange for a preview.
