In the second part of this ChangeMakers episode, Katie continues her conversation with Ruth White, now focusing on recent legislative efforts and Ruth's new career developments. Ruth discusses the Campus Housing Affordability Act, which aims to allow former foster youth to use housing vouchers for college dormitories. She explains the potential impact of this legislation on foster youth pursuing higher education and addresses common misconceptions about housing options for these students. Ruth then shares her transition from the National Center for Housing and Child Welfare to her new role as leader of Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Wilmington. The conversation concludes with Ruth's insights on upcoming policy initiatives, including the Baseline Rent Optimum Escrow proposal and efforts to restore HUD's Continuum of Care program to address homelessness more effectively.
