Made possible through a generous grant from Central City Foundation, the Hope Dialogue Radio Show and Podcast is created in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. This show is a weekly one-hour exploration of the topics, issues and complex circumstances challenging low-income neighbourhoods like DTES, others around the lower mainland, and beyond. Our focus is on listening to the voices of people who live and work in these communities, with the belief that conversations like this are how we can begin to make better progress toward solving some of our biggest social problems.
