Tonight on Healthstyles I interview Andrea Stella, founder and Executive Director of The Space at Tompkins which works with transient, and often homeless, individuals in New York City’s East Village neighborhood. Hear Ms. Stella describe their Peer-Run Co-operative Membership Model, how the programming is driven by a public health framework using the guidelines of harm reduction. This is one smart, creative team of people working together as a community to make a difference.
Healthstyles streams on WBAI (99.5FM in the NYC region) from 11:00 to 11:30 PM and then can be accessed on the WBAI archives.
