The Jungle: Home No More
This week San Jose moved to clear out hundreds of homeless people from one of the largest encampments in the Bay Area -- and the country. Known as "The Jungle," it was just 10 miles from the headquarters of tech giant Apple. City and county agencies have spent millions of dollars on services, affordable housing and housing vouchers, but critics say it's not enough. Scott Shafer visited "The Jungle" shortly before the evictions began.

Bryant is a recipient of the first annual "Women Who Rule" Award, given by Politico, Google and the Tory Burch Foundation.
