Joe Roberts, "Skid Row CEO", Pushing for Change

Ottawa Wrench

On this episode I did a phone-in interview with Joe Roberts who is currently in Thunder Bay, running from Newfoundland to B.C. to raise intrigue about homelessness, especially youth homelessness. Joe himself has lived experience being street involved and homeless, but he turned his life around with help from family and a certain police officer. He went on to become an entrepreneur, author and public speaker. Now he's focused on the push for change.
