About this listen

Claire, wealthy and recently widowed, is adrift. She has access to tools to make a real difference but can't figure out where to apply them. Erica, a young outreach worker to the homeless, has grown so cynical about the broken system that she's breaking rules herself—and for that, she's about to get fired. One day, Erica finds Claire giving away gourmet sandwiches and twenty-dollar bills at a homeless encampment, and yanks her out of there with a lecture about systemic problems and feel-good solutions. Their conflict soon becomes a partnership, and they craft a plan to help ten unhoused women get off the streets and build a community of their own. Together, they navigate nasty neighbors and difficult politicians. And just when it seems like they're going to pull it off, a shadow from one woman's past jeopardizes the entire project.
