#130 Sanitary Assistance Corps (SAC) to combat homelessness, poverty and mental health challenges.
Thursday, 2 May, 2024
Joy Gilfilen interviews Ryan Bowman about creating the Sanitary Assistance Corps (SAC) program to combat homelessness, poverty and mental health challenges. As an empowerment program for life skills training through community involvement, it could be followed by the Gleaning Assistance Corps, and the Environmental Assistance Corps. Ryan's strategies are inspired by historical projects like the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) which was a Depression-era program that put young men to work in rural areas and parks throughout the country to help conservation efforts. Today it could work similarly for all ages and sexes, people who have been marginalized and displaced by civic challenges to help them stabilize and rebuild their lives. Ryan is also the host of "Ryes Up" on Spotify, tune in for stimulating innovative thinking.
