Episode Synopsis


In this episode we conclude our special series focused on Urban Strategies, Inc., a national non-profit that exemplifies the quest for urban equity and inclusion. Urban Strategies works with more than 30,000 low- to moderate-income families in 31 communities across 24 major metropolitan areas. We welcome Esther Shin, President and CEO of USI, back to the podcast, and invite her to share her list of housing and social policies that are counterproductive in the quest to help marginalized households on their quest for economic mobility. She describes several problematic policies and indicates the changes that USI would recommend to provide better incentives and support and achieve greater impact.
