Imperfect Paradise presents HTLA: Volunteers Take On The Homelessness Crisis: Part 3 & 4
This week, Imperfect Paradise is featuring Part 3 & Part 4 of a four-part series from How To LA. HTLA host Brian De Los Santos and producer Evan Jacoby are taking a closer look at L.A. Mayor Karen Bass's "Inside Safe" program. They also recap some of the big questions we've asked throughout the series, and bring a new question to many of our guests from the previous episodes: "What should the relationship be between mutual aid volunteers and government agencies?"
