Michele Steeb co-author of the new book Answers behind the Red Door: Battling the Homeless Epidemic joins the podcast to detail the underlying problems in our nation’s rising homeless population. She’ll explain why many of our current policies have made the problem worse and why the key to helping those struggling the most involves much more than providing a roof over their head.

 

Michele Steeb is a senior fellow with the Texas Public Policy Foundation and oversees the Foundation’s initiative to transform the United States’ and Texas’ homelessness policy. She has spent her career in causes for the public good beginning with leadership roles in both federal and state senate campaigns. She served four years as the Vice President of Political Affairs for the California Chamber of Commerce and prior to that, founded two technology-focused companies. In 2006, Michele joined a struggling shelter for homeless women and children and transformed it into one of the nation’s beacons of success. During her tenure, Michele served on multiple boards to address homelessness and was appointed by Governor Brown to serve on the State’s Prison Industry Authority (2012-2020). She is a noted public speaker, has written numerous opinion editorials on homelessness.

Independent Women’s Forum (IWF) believes all issues are women’s issues. IWF promotes policies that aren’t just well-intended, but actually enhance people’s freedoms, opportunities, and choices. IWF doesn’t just talk about problems. We identify solutions and take them straight to the playmakers and policy creators. And, as a 501(c)3, IWF educates the public about the most important topics of the day.
