In the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, we all experience some levels of stress. However, we often forget the holidays amplify the challenges that the unhoused may have.
In this episode, Amy Meredith, an author, keynote speaker, consultant, and cofounder and CEO of UP For Women and Children, answers "What is it like for the unhoused during the holidays?"

Amy also offers insight into the unique issues unhoused women and the elderly face.
- Violence is the leading cause of homelessness for women
- 2 in 5 women account for Louisville’s unhoused population, yet there are only 94 shelter beds designated for women among the city’s emergency shelter
- 1 in 5 women experiencing homelessness in Louisville are over the age of 62
Amy's new book, "Where the Light Breaks Through," is available to purchase.
