Dal Williams, A Retired Major of Marines - On Solving Family Homelessness

Dal Williams, retired Major of Marines and educator talks about the early challenges of homelessness in the city of which he served as an elected official. Dal pioneered a community initiative that started with an education campaign called Real Change Not Spare Change. The campaign engaged business owners, law enforcement, nonprofits and churches in a productive dialogue around dealing with the problems of homelessness head-on. Dals no-nonsense approach gained traction which then eventually led to a new way of local government, business and community organizations working together in dealing with a very old social problem.

It's great to hear from someone who is concerned and passionate about giving families who have been affected by homelessness, an opportunity to change their lives.
