The Homelessness Marathon is an annual, national, radio broadcast that features the voices of homeless and poor people in a town-hall style conversation.

Judge Jim Gray, the vice-presidential candidate of the Libertarian Party, and Cheri Honkala, the vice-presidential candidate of the Green Party both have agreed to come on the broadcast, give their plans for addressing poverty and take questions directly from homeless people.
