Coping 101: Holding Your Home

"Everyone is our neighbor. Even if they are someone who we may not align ourselves with, who we may not agree with, they are still our neighbors. And we still believe that housing is a human right."

Miriam Clithero is a former journalist with a background in psychology and trauma informed care, who currently serves as the Director of Prevention and Stability at Mary’s Place. She sat down with a member of Nathan Hale High School's Podcast Club to explore the impact that stable housing can have on one’s mental health, and the health of communities at large.

c89.5 produces Coping 101 in partnership with Seattle Children's, The WA State Department of Health, Compass Health, 4Culture, Hansmire Builders and others. The series is led by students in c89.5's high school Radio program with a mission to spotlight vital resources and shatter stigmas from diverse teen perspectives.
