Cranford Radio Update for the Week of January 10
Richard Brown - Recipient of This Year's Martin Luther King Jr. Award
Homelessness can affect anyone at any time. As a young adult, Richard Brown found himself without a home following a fire. The experience changed his life and guided much of his work. On this week’s podcast I talk with Richard about those experiences and how he and his late wife. Jan, worked to repair a broken world.
