In this compelling episode of Homeward Indy, we delve deep into the formidable challenges families face when grappling with homelessness. Our guest, Breanna Klink, the dedicated Program Director at Holy Family Shelter, shares her experiences and insights from aiding families from diverse backgrounds on their journey toward stable housing. At Holy Family Shelter, Breanna and her team assist families of all kinds, including many refugees and immigrants new to Indianapolis. Using an impactful translation service, Propio, the shelter goes above and beyond to bridge language barriers, ensuring every resident receives the support they need. Discover how Holy Family Shelter not only provides a haven but also a wide array of comprehensive services to both its residents and the broader community, including eviction prevention and housing problem-solving. Breanna also sheds light on a critical issue: the glaring lack of dedicated funding and housing projects tailored to serve families. This leaves them with distressingly limited options for shelter or stable housing, exposing a systemic challenge that demands our attention.
