Jubilee Women's Center has experienced continued attention as a result the recent national PBS piece on "Middle Class and Newly Homeless." The City of Seattle Human Services Department highlighted it a recent community-wide electronic communication, and the Capitol Hill Seattle blog covered it last week.
I believe this issue needs more attention in the Seattle region -- yes, the economy is showing signs of rebound, but the devastation that has occurred is tremendous. And how long will it really take for people to recover? Many middle class individuals and families are hesitant to share their personal stories but a visible local piece on this issue needs to be done.
Missing Paul Nyhan's (at the Seattle PI) beat/focus...who will pick up the slack?
