Eradicating Recidivism and Curing Homelessness. Insights from Exodus Place's CEO, Robb Munger

Imagine for a second how you would feel if, after a mistake or an unexpected succession of events, you lose everything and find yourself on the streets, struggling with addiction, coming out of jail, or dealing with PTSD after serving in the army. Now, imagine someone extends their hand and equips you with the tools to start over again. That helping hand would be Robb Munger's.Today, I'm so excited to be joined by Robb Munger. Robb is the CEO and Executive Director at Exodus Place, a transitional housing facility for men experiencing homelessness. It started with many uncertainties about its future but with a clear objective: creating a culture for those needing a hand-up, not a handout. Robb is convinced that homelessness can (and must!) be cured, not treated.Tune in and listen to the fifty-fifth episode of Avant-garde Entrepreneur.
