In this episode of "Collaborative Solutions," host Barry Feaker and co-host Misty Bosch Hastings talk with Tenants to Homeowners' Executive Director, Rebecca Buford, and Housing Care Coordinator, Angie Bauer. They explore innovative solutions to homelessness and housing insecurity in Lawrence and Douglas County. Tenants to Homeowners offers a spectrum of housing options—from affordable rentals to entry-level homeownership—addressing diverse community needs. The discussion highlights the crucial role of supportive services in helping individuals transition from homelessness to stable housing. A key theme is shifting the community perspective from "Not In My Back Yard" (NIMBY) to "Yes In My Back Yard" (YIMBY). By dispelling myths and encouraging collaboration, they aim to create an inclusive community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
