S8 Ep 14 – "Reclaim. Renovate. Re-invest" Changing Neighborhoods One Block at a Time

The best way to address community issues is through bottom-up solutions. This means that solutions should come from individuals who have experienced poverty themselves and have a deep understanding of the challenges faced by the community.

In this episode of The 411 Live, host Beverly Taylor sits down with Kurt Owens, the pastor of You Flourish Church of Milwaukee and the founder of Bridge Builders. They discuss Kurt's personal journey from drug dealer to pastor, his decision to stay in his neighborhood and make a positive impact, and the mission of Bridge Builders. His mission is to inspire inner-city innovation and transform neighborhoods one block at a time. Join us for a thought-provoking conversation on real people and real talk.
