This week I talk with DeShanda Williams-Clark, Senior Vice President of Programs & Services at Pathfinders about how their organization takes care of so many of our at-risk youth in the city. Whether through their drop-in center, emergency shelter, or street outreach, Pathways has a variety of touchpoints for homeless and struggling youth to welcome them into their care and to promote their healing and long-term stability. Listen as we talk about what these youth need, which is not different from any of the stories we’ve heard this season: compassion, validation, and acceptance. We also talk about how adults (that's us!) can stop ‘adultifying’ youth to make this acceptance possible.
