This episode of The Way Home radio show and podcast presented by the Union Rescue Mission is a must-listen for anyone passionate about making a difference in the lives of those experiencing homelessness in Los Angeles. Join Frank Mottek and Mark Hood, CEO of the Union Rescue Mission, as they tackle a sensitive topic that's been making headlines lately - a recent article in the L.A. Times that questioned the accuracy of the homeless count in Los Angeles.

In this episode, Mark Hood sets the record straight about the article's claims, explaining that the Union Rescue Mission has been transparent about its data and has been working closely with the city to address the issue of homelessness. The conversation also delves into the importance of community outreach and how businesses can get involved in making a positive impact. Kevin Harbour, former president of the LA BizFed Institute and now CEO of Business Management Systems, joins the conversation, sharing his insights on how businesses can support organizations like the Union Rescue Mission and make a real difference in the community.

The episode also features a powerful success story from Stephen, a graduate of the Union Rescue Mission's Emmaus program who is now a supervisor at the organization. His story is a testament to the life-changing work of the Union Rescue Mission and a reminder that there is hope for those struggling with homelessness. The conversation also touches on the upcoming Over the Edge event, a fundraising event that will take place on September 25th and 26th, where participants will rappel down the side of the Universal Hilton hotel to raise awareness and funds for the Union Rescue Mission.
