Homelessness, ignorance, addiction, poverty...
Steven has experienced all these things over the past 50 years. Then, in 1999, he entered recovery and earned his BA and MPA at California State University, Chico, as well as a Ph.D in Hard Knocks at the University of Bad Choices.

He has since dedicated his life to working with underserved populations, and currently works as a Recovery Specialist for the Center for Social Innovation (C4SI) in Boston, MA. Steven is a nationally recognized expert on homelessness and its impact upon individuals and communities.

Over the last decade, Steven has provided street outreach and oversaw a Veterans Service Center that specializes in serving veterans experiencing homelessness. He spent two years as a team member of a national training team for the National Health Care for the Homeless Council. He continues in a national training role in his current capacity at C4SI. He serves on the Board of the Nashville Continuum of Care Steering Committee, co-founded The Contributor, a street newspaper sold by the homeless in and around Nashville Tennessee and considered one of the most successful street newspapers in the world, is a contributor to the Homelessness Resource Center's website and writes freelance for Change.org's Homelessness section. During his spare time, he blogs at Stone Soup Station from his home office near Lebanon, Tennessee.
