Homelessness and Healing: Jason Robison on Community Support

Our work is grounded in connecting people to those social relationships. If I'm in a self-help support group, I'm going to know somebody that's got a friend that owns a company that wants to hire somebody that's also in recovery, as they define recovery, and that's going to be much easier.
Imagine billions of dollars spent on homelessness in LA County, yet the problem persists. In this episode of 'Life Beyond Thinking', host Robert De Pinto chats with Jason Robison, the Chief Program Officer for SHARE! the Self-Help And Recovery Exchange, to dig into why. With over 17 years in Peer Services, Jason brings a wealth of experience to the table. They discuss how trauma often lies at the heart of homelessness and why current solutions miss the mark.
Jason shares how self-help support groups and community connections can be game-changers. These groups don’t just offer support; they create networks where opportunities flourish. As Jason puts it, 'Being part of a support group means knowing someone who knows someone who can help.' It's a fresh take on tackling homelessness, focusing on social relationships and community-driven solutions. If you’re curious about how we can all play a part in ending this cycle of suffering, this episode is a must-listen.
