We're joining homeless NYers + advocates for July #HomelessRightsMonth , calling on the city and state to: 1) Stop the sweeps 2) Fast-track housing 3) Provide shelter with privacy and dignity! Join us at actions this month & follow #HomelessRightsMonth to stay updated!
Brave and important open letter from Homeless Services workers. Homeless people know that NYPD cannot and SHOULD not be involved in service provision, and DHS employees know it too.
Yesterday Communities United for Police Reform released THE decisive report on specific ways New York City Council & Mayor Eric Adams can #DefundNYPD in pursuit of #NYCBudgetJustice . (bit.ly/616budgetreport).
The report was dedicated to Nikita Price of Picture the Homeless who recently & tragically moved beyond this world.
Hot off the virtual 'presses'!
#HomelessCantStayHome report on what defunding the NYPD means for homeless ppl's safety, privacy and dignity--& how over $100 mil. in funds used to police and harass the homeless could be better spent on ENDING homelessness
