Thousands of people are living on the streets in Utah struggling to find work and a place to live. Many suffer from addiction and mental illness, and sophisticated criminals are taking advantage of their misfortune, but Utah’s elected officials are working on a solution.

Whittney will briefly introduce the panelists and then the floor will be open to the audience to ask questions.

Jackie Biskupski, Salt Lake City Mayor
