| The SF Homeless Project, an unprecedented collaboration of more than 80 media organizations from the Bay Area and beyond, has completed its first year of coordinated coverage exploring the causes and effects of soaring housing prices and the increasing number of people living on the streets.
For the project's first anniversary, KQED, along with dozens of other regional media outlets, has joined forces for another wave of coverage. This week Forum is devoting three programs exploring regional differences of homelessness in the Bay Area; KQED News reporters visit tent cities in Oakland, Fresno and Southern California; Above the Noise explores the growing number of homeless high school students; Q'ed Up launches the first podcast of its new multipart series "Homeless U," which catches up with some of the homeless college students our reporters met earlier this year; and Mark Fiore illustrates the surprisingly innovative homeless encampments that are popping up along waterways in Marin County.
Last week Bay Curious published a new podcast episode that tackles fundamental questions its producers have received from listeners about the homeless epidemic, including its root causes, which communities are having success alleviating the problem, and what you can do about it. | | |
