Playlist for Show: The Science Of Poverty

Today we talked to Jessica Reyes. Jessica has been homeless because of drug use. She was using by the age of 13, she is around her late 30-s this year. We discussed much about drugs, addictions, and some of the terminology even I didn’t know. We discussed what caused her addictions, and what that meant to her and her family. Loosing her children was the final straw in pushing her into homelessness. Much of the show was the specific nuances of using drugs, and how she felt about herself, and in her own words, the greed that the drugs forced her into.
