Their main focus is continuing to investigate homelessness in Huntsville and creating a solution that is effective for the community.
athy Reisenwitz and Rob Clark are a couple seeking to perform what is likely perceived to be a tall task: eliminate homelessness in Huntsville by 2026.
APR spoke to Reisenwitz and Clark about their inspiration for this undertaking, how they seek to accomplish their goal and what is driving homelessness in Huntsville.
The pair founded the Huntsville New Liberals organization in June and created a podcast called “Housing for Huntsvillians” in August.
Huntsville’s homeless population is estimated to be about 600, according to a point-in-time summary from January, but this is likely an undercount. The issue of homelessness is not a visible problem yet in Huntsville, hence why data is very scarce and limited. But Reisenwitz says she notices it is growing and going to become a bigger problem if it is not addressed properly over the upcoming years.
