Transcript for audioclip 40412

There are a lot of statistics about who becomes homeless and why. But the reality of being homeless is not in those statistics.

Greg Anglea, the CEO of Interfaith Community Services based in Escondido, believes that to really understand how people end up homeless, you have to listen to their stories. Anglea is on a mission to get those stories told. He’s launched a podcast to do just that.

It's called "Homeless in San Diego: Real People, Real Stories."

Anglea joins Midday Edition on Tuesday to discuss the mission behind the podcast and the stories he's heard so far.
