Health reporter Molly Rosbach joins host Mike Faulk to discuss how health care issues impact the Yakima Valley’s homeless community, and what local providers are doing to address the issue.

Faulk and Rosbach, both of whom have covered homelessness as well as state politics, also discuss how state and federal budget cuts may impact homeless services.
