Jonathon Anderson is the CEO of the Good News Rescue Mission in Redding, California, where he has served for over a decade. Under his leadership, the Mission has expanded to 11 buildings across a three-block campus, offering emergency shelter, recovery programs, transitional housing, and outreach services to individuals experiencing homelessness. During his tenure, the Mission has sheltered over 13,000 unduplicated individuals.
Jonathan is described as being "passionate about innovative, faith-driven solutions that bridge public and private partnerships to create lasting change in the community." In our conversation, we speak a bit about the activities of the GNRM, criminal legal system issues related to poverty and homelessness.
