In this episode, Molly Howey, CEO of the Greater Topeka Partnership, talks with Barry Feaker, CEO of Compassion Strategies; La Manda Cunningham, CEO of TRM; and Miriam Krehbiel, CSO of Topeka Rescue Mission, about how real economic development in Topeka and Shawnee County means people building lives, businesses thriving, and neighbors tackling hard issues together. She unpacks the Partnership's "Better Together" model, how the Chamber, Go Topeka, Visit Topeka, and Downtown Topeka work under one roof with distinct missions, plus job growth, community benchmarks, and rising community pride. The conversation then turns to chronic homelessness. We name the downstream problems people see and the upstream causes that take time, resources, and trust to address. You'll hear why education matters, why relationships change outcomes, and how business leaders and nonprofit partners can align around solutions that protect both human dignity and a healthy local economy.
