Poverty is a complex issue encompassing a wide range of experiences. Our guest is Connie Snyder Mick, the Director of academic affairs at the CSC and the Poverty Studies Interdisciplinary Minor. In 2016 an encampment of people formed in an unsheltered viaduct on Main St in South Bend. Connie led a case study that looked at this encampment through the eyes of different stakeholders to better understand some of the causes, consequences, and responses that might reflect encampments in other places.
