Winter is Coming: A Housing Justice Podcast - Ep 9: Joe Mancini - Antidotes to Bureaucracy and the Success of a Shelter with no Rules

This week we are joined by co-founder and director of The Working Centre Joe Mancini. For over 40 years Joe and his partner Stephanie and countless Working Centre staff and volunteers have been combatting poverty in Kitchener-Waterloo and carrying out "common work" as the antidote to the kind of bureaucracy that maintains poverty and housing injustice. Adam and Joe talk about how the pandemic has changed their work, and the success of a shelter that found innovation by having no rules.
