S4 E3 Johanna Puirava - Providing A Mobile Resting Place for Vulnerable Folks in Helsinki
Manage episode 412798660 series 3568853
In today's conversation we are joined by Johanna Puirava from Helsinki, Finland where she started Levähdyspaikka (Finnish for Resting Place), a mobile outreach program for those struggling with homelessness and substance abuse out of the back of her Volvo. The underlying vision of Levähdyspaikka is the idea that every person is created and precious by God, and deserves to be heard and seen. Join us as Johanna and I talk about what drew her into social work and how an internship in New York City helped prepared her to start Levähdyspaikka.
