Helping homeless veterans in the nation's capital

The focus is on veterans in the newest episode of the Update-1 podcast. Gemma Puglisi talks with Veterans on the Rise Executive Director David Kurtz, who shares the work the 30-year-old nonprofit has done to help homeless veterans in the nation's capital.

From the launch of the organization back in 1989 by four vets who took a stand against veteran homelessness through today, including the Supreme Court ruling on homelessness, Kurtz shares how veterans on the Rise has helped vets through a range of services from physical and mental health, life skills and employment training.

Update-1 is produced by Mike Hempen. Besides playing on the Club homepage, Update-1 can be found on Spotify, Apple Podcast, YouTube Music, Audacity and TuneIn by searching for “NPC Update-1.”
