Downtown Austin Alliance has scheduled an “Issues & Eggs” breakfast panel for Sept. 26, looking at the current state of homelessness in Austin and how to address it. The event will take place from 7:30 to 9 a.m. at St. David’s Episcopal Church on Eighth Street. Discussion will focus on the $65 million recently awarded by the city to nonprofits working to address homelessness and how those organizations are working to help the local unhoused population. Mayor Kirk Watson will make opening comments before the discussion with panelists Chris Baker, executive director of The Other Ones Foundation; Jo Kathryn Quinn, president and CEO of Caritas Austin; and Kirkpatrick Tyler, chief of government and community affairs for Urban Alchemy. Registration is free; more info is available online.
