This episode of the Way Home Radio Show and Podcast is a powerful conversation about the intersection of homelessness and recovery. Mark Hood, CEO of the Union Rescue Mission, is joined by Brian Ulf, CEO of SHARE, a self-help and recovery exchange program providing housing, rehab, and renewal. They discuss the importance of community and peer support in recovery, and how SHARE's model is making a real difference in the lives of those struggling with addiction and homelessness.

The conversation delves into the challenges of traditional housing programs and the need for a more holistic approach that addresses the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of those in recovery. Mark and Brian share their insights on the importance of community, peer support, and faith-based programs in achieving long-term recovery. They also discuss the need for collaboration and partnerships between organizations to provide comprehensive support services.

They also highlight the success stories of individuals who have been helped by SHARE's program and the Union Rescue Mission.
