Bill Radke speaks with Susan Salisbury and Sara Rankin about a Portland, Oregon program that provides one-way tickets for homeless people who have a better situation somewhere else but no way to get there. Salisbury is with 211 Info, the group running the Portland pilot project. Rankin heads the Homeless Rights Advocacy Project at Seattle University.
