Bending the Arc Podcast: From Selfies to Social Justice

In this episode, we take a closer look at how technology – with a particular eye toward mobile devices – is being used for social good through a case study of Youth Matters Philly, an online resource bank designed to address youth homelessness by forging connections between young people and social services in Philadelphia. We speak with two women instrumental in its creation – Marcía Hopkins of the Juvenile Law Center and Dr. Johanna Greeson – in order to learn how professional expertise, youth centered design, and interagency collaboration led to a unique solution to an entrenched problem.
