In this first episode of the In Short Supply podcast, we'll hear from The Day staff writer Elizabeth Reagan as she talks about how our region is faring when it comes to the housing crisis and why there seems to be a short supply of affordable homes, housing developments, and options for some members of our communities. How does this all deepen the existing economic divide in our state and country? And how do we address, what Cathy Zall the executive director of New London Homeless Hospitality calls the mismatch between income and the cost of living?

In Short Supply is a podcast series examining how the housing crisis, which is affecting the country as a whole and is getting worse with the growth in inflation, impacts the communities of southeastern Connecticut. It is part of The Day's yearlong investigative initiative called the Housing Solutions Lab.
