Vicki Sokolik refuses to be an Ostrich. Her son brought to her attention the crisis of unhoused youth — youth unhoused, not living with a parent/guardian, and not in foster care — in America, and she has been fighting to support this vulnerable population every since. Most active in Tampa Bay, Florida, Vicki is the founder and CEO of the nonprofit Starting Right, Now, which removes barriers for unaccompanied homeless youth to cultivate long-term well-being and self-sufficiency. She is also the author of the new book, “If You See Them: Young, Unhoused, and Alone in America.” Vicki Sokolik joined host Jay Ruderman to discuss the many ways unhoused youth fall through the cracks in our society, how her organization helps them, and also how to build trust with people who could use your help.

Just days after the United States Supreme Court heard oral argument in the United States v. Skrmetti case, which involves a challenge to state laws that protect minors from irreversible "affirming care," the Montana Supreme Court upheld a district court decision that enjoined Montana's legal protection for minors. In the past three months, the Montana Supreme Court has ruled that minors have the right to abortion without parental consent and the right to radical, irreversible transgender therapies. Despite growing evidence that these procedures are actually harmful to children, the Montana Supreme Court's decision is another attack on God's design for human beings and families.
