Finding Home: How Americans Prevail

Hosts Cecil Prescod and Celeste Carey speak with journalist Sally Ooms about her new book "Finding Home: How Americans Prevail." Ooms writes about Americans who are dealing with housing problems on a daily basis: vets, foster kids, single moms, laid-off workers, retirees and small business owners. Ooms strove to understand what the word home really means to people. She also wanted to look at displaced people and how they created, recreated and/or retained their homes.

Sally Ooms has been a print journalist for over 30 years, a reporter, correspondent and editor for publications in Oregon, California, New Mexico, Colorado, Missouri and Kansas. Among the publications she has worked for are: the Sacramento Bee,  the Las Vegas Daily Optic, the Alburquerque Journal, the Santa Fe New Mexican, and many more.
