Vicki Sokolik refuses to be an Ostrich. Her son brought to her attention the crisis of unhoused youth — youth unhoused, not living with a parent/guardian, and not in foster care — in America, and she has been fighting to support this vulnerable population every since. Most active in Tampa Bay, Florida, Vicki is the founder and CEO of the nonprofit Starting Right, Now, which removes barriers for unaccompanied homeless youth to cultivate long-term well-being and self-sufficiency. She is also the author of the new book, “If You See Them: Young, Unhoused, and Alone in America.” Vicki Sokolik joined host Jay Ruderman to discuss the many ways unhoused youth fall through the cracks in our society, how her organization helps them, and also how to build trust with people who could use your help.

In this episode, we catch up with Community Services Director Travis Menne to learn what happened with the Redding Sports Park, formerly Big League Dreams. Just for a little history, the last time we spoke with Travis, the City had not decided what to do with the facility. The City Council has since decided to have the City reopen and run the facility short-term to get leagues and tournaments back in play and keep this vital resource open to community members. City staff hit the ground running and familiarized themselves with the facilities, and create a plan quickly. The facility officially opened as Redding Sports Park on October 2, 2024, and things are going well so far. Travis talks about the return of tournaments, the revival of beloved programs like roller hockey and youth baseball, and ambitious plans for new sand volleyball courts. The topic of the Redding Sports Park will go back to City Council in January for an update and direction on how to move forward. Whether you’re a local athlete or just curious about the park, this episode is packed with updates and a glimpse at what’s to come. Don’t miss it!

The condition of the roads around Redding is always a hot topic, so we brought in the expert to give us the latest info and some interesting facts about why things are the way they are in Redding. Today, Michael Webb, Director of Public Works, discusses the effort, strategy, and foresight toward maintaining and improving 60 square miles of roadway in Redding. This is a lot of road. By comparison, Chico is 30 square miles but gets the same state funding for roads. This is based on the gas tax measured by population size—not the amount of roadway. Michael hopes to raise Redding’s general road conditions from a Pavement Condition Index of 50 to over 80 - a goal that will take many years and more funding. For now, maintaining the pavement and condition of Redding’s roads is a balancing act between fixing those in dire need and maintaining those most used by the community. Between grant funding, smart planning, and key budget decisions, he hopes to improve the state of the roads in Redding little by little. One thing is certain: the size of a city like Redding presents some big challenges.

Family Sports are a big deal in Redding, and there are a few notable facilities that offer places for kids and adults to recreate. Today, we talk with Kenny Breedlove from the California Soccer Park, the director of one of those facilities. There has been a lot of recent news about the facility next door to the soccer park, formally known as Big League Dreams, now called Redding Sports Park. While this conversation isn’t about that facility, its challenges sometimes overshadow the great things happening at the California Soccer Park. Kenny is new to the role of Director at the California Soccer Park. He has a lot of great ideas and energy for bringing an already premier facility to the next level. He’s launching a restaurant at the park with a top Redding Chef, is focused on expanding offerings in addition to soccer, and is looking for new ways for families to get outside, get off their screens, and have fun. While you may have visited the soccer park a thousand times, or you may have never set foot there, Kenny is cooking up ways for all Redding families to enjoy NFL-quality turf, top-notch food, and activities for all ages. There’s never been a better time to visit.

1:00:40The Redding Civic Auditorium, built in 1970, is a unique venue that caters to concert-goers, trade show attendees, banquets, and much more. Flex seating allows the capacity to change based on the size or style of the event. Even though it serves many entertainment functions in our community, the Civic sometimes doesn’t get the credit it deserves. Today we talk with Julie Dyar, General Manager of the Redding Civic Auditorium, and while she admits that the design of the building is polarizing, she believes the foresight in the flex seating capacity is just one of the elements that has made the venue last as long as it has in our community. We’ll also find out what it takes to book a show, what makes Redding a good market, and how ticket prices are calculated. She’ll also dispel a few longstanding myths about who runs and owns the Civic. There are a ton of exciting acts hitting the Redding Civic Auditorium soon—including the biggest outdoor stage ever to grace the Civic this fall. With more to come in the next year, there has never been a better time to check out all the great shows coming to our area.

1 Do Cars Control Our Happiness? How Walkable Cities Help Shape Community and Overall Economic Vitality. 34:48
Today we talk to Dan Burden, a Blue Zones Fellow and International Walkability expert. Dan has built a career by helping cities reshape downtown districts and neighborhoods to make them more walkable and bikeable. His efforts are more than just a passion for accessible spaces - these changes increase economic vitality. In fact, 79% of those looking to buy a home say they want to buy in a walkable area. However, only a small percentage of cities meet that target. For many decades, the US has focused on car-centered travel, which has dramatically shaped the way we live. Shifting focus to walkable spaces has been shown to increase the local economy, overall sense of well-being and happiness, and perhaps most notably, the area's safety. So can Redding become a more walkable city? Dan thinks so and will host a Walking Audit in August to show Redding residents how small changes can make a big impact. If Alaska and Yuma, Arizona can have walkable spaces, Redding can too.

Big League Dreams Sports Park in Redding officially closed its doors on July 24, and the City of Redding is working to determine the best next steps. At a special City Council meeting held on July 29th, the Redding City Council asked City staff for more information on what it would cost to run the facility both in the short- and long term in an effort to keep the current leagues in play. One thing is for sure: This facility is well-loved by many in the community, and there was a packed house in the city council chambers to prove it. However, there is no doubt that BLD needs some TLC. One estimate was nearly 8 million dollars in needed repairs and improvements. Today, we connect with Community Services director Travis Menne about the facility's history and future plans and asked just a few of the dozens of community questions posed online and at the special city council meeting.

Today we connect with Captain Chris Smyrnos of the Redding Police Department about the new RPD Strategic Plan. This strategic plan represents a comprehensive and focus-centered approach to public safety, community engagement, and crime prevention in Redding. It outlines the department's goals and priorities for the coming years and reflects a commitment to transparency, innovation, and collaboration. This plan not only helps RPD track and measure goals and outcomes but also lets the community know where they will focus their efforts in the next three years. The overall result will help the department reflect on challenges and successes over time to better serve the community. In this episode, we'll explore the key components of the strategic plan, what it means for the residents of Redding, and how it aims to enhance the safety and quality of life for everyone in our community.

Maintaining the city's sewer system requires a lot of work, but if the city staff is doing the job correctly, you shouldn’t even realize the work is being done. Today, we speak with Kevin Garner, Public Works Supervisor for the Wastewater Division, about the work his team does every day to ensure our sewer system is flowing properly. Part of this important work entails inspecting manholes and sewer access points that are considered remote and hard to reach. Since every square inch of pipe could pose a problem for the system as a whole, tracking down and inspecting every one of these is critical. Sewer systems do a dirty job no one wants to think about. But we hope you’ll take a minute to listen to this episode and learn about what the City of Redding Wastewater Division does to ensure you don’t have to worry about it. In fact, your local Wastewater team has been recognized as one of the best in the state.
