what works podcast
What Works Podcast is more than a conversation — it’s a movement toward clarity, courage, and practical action in residential care.
Led by Jason Rinker and David Owens, this podcast dives into the heart of STRTP, group homes, and the evolution of youth services — exploring not just theory, but the real work happening on the ground. It honors the history, challenges the status quo, and highlights what is truly making a difference for youth and families today.
Filmed and edited by Jacob Arechiga, the podcast brings powerful dialogue to life with intention and purpose — creating a platform where professionals can learn, reflect, and grow together.
Because in this field, it’s not about doing everything.
It’s about doing just what works.
