WCNY Community FM is pleased to present this monthly show from our colleagues at North Country Public Radio.

Making The City Smaller Ep. 3 - Tray Dandom, from Vera House to "Truthfully Tracy"

On this episode of Making the City Smaller, Tracy Dando joins Peter and Mike in the studio for a conversation that didn't stay on the surface for very long. Tracy recently joined the team at Vera House, where she's expanding services for survivors of domestic violence and abuse throughout Central New York, while also hosting Truthfully Tracy, a podcast built around the idea that every person has a truth worth speaking out loud. Tracy talks openly about her own journey — the work she's done to get here, what it took to get on a TEDx stage in Phoenix after a panic attack the night before, and why Vera House feels like the right next chapter. The story of Safe Space and what it meant to close it is part of that.
