What if your neighborhood was quietly being reshaped by unregulated group homes, or if the seniors in your community were living in appalling conditions? In our latest episode, we pull back the curtain on a host of pressing issues facing our city, starting with the growing concern over group homes in East and West Price Hill.
We also examine the shift in how schools manage truancy, moving from truant officers to innovative absence intervention teams.
Our journey doesn't stop there. We tackle the complex world of government contracts and grants, focusing on identifying and preventing fraud, waste, and abuse. This conversation is not just about oversight; it's about empowering you, our listeners, to play a pivotal role in ensuring accountability.
