In this week’s episode of Straight Talk, No B.S. with Matthew’s Hope, presented by Imagine Marketing, Pastor Scott and Shelley discuss the growing baby boomer problem.

Learn what factors are causing a significant increase in the number of older Americans finding themselves homeless for the first time and how Matthew’s Hope is having to adapt to serve them. The Moving Forward Program has always been about moving someone towards a life of independence and self-sustainability and often includes learning new skills, going to school for a trade and starting a new career. That is easier said than done if you are in your 60s or 70s.

Each week, Pastor Scott, Shelley and guests share their experiences from operating a homeless outreach in Florida's Orange and Brevard Counties to raise awareness and tackle some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding the homeless crisis in America today.

In Episode 106 of Straight Talk, No B.S. with Matthew’s Hope, presented by Imagine Marketing, Pastor Scott and Tracy are joined once again by Lee Perry, the founder of Lee Perry Strategies LLC. Be sure to watch last week’s episode if you haven’t already seen part I with Lee.

This week the discussion is centered on inspiring more support for nonprofits. Lee explains that her goal is to inspire enough financial support for organizations like Matthew’s Hope so that they can focus on serving their guests rather than fundraising and grant writing. Lee also gives example of how powerful each of our voices can be and how much influence we can have even if we can’t make financial donations.

In Episode 105 of Straight Talk, No B.S. with Matthew’s Hope, presented by Imagine Marketing, Pastor Scott and Tracy are joined by Lee Perry, founder of Lee Perry Strategies LLC to discuss the importance of local politics and getting involved.

They share details of a proposed shelter project in Orlando that was scrapped before it got started in part due to public outrage from people that were poorly informed and fully bought into many of the stigmas and stereotypes this podcast aims to dispel.

Lee shares her experiences from her own civic engagement and encourages viewers and listeners to educate themselves and become involved in their own communities to help impact the change they want to see.
