Join us for two days of art and action to uplift the voices of people experiencing homelessness in our region! We are calling for an end to the criminalization of survival, community, and property and for the right to dignified access to shelter and housing. If you’d like to donate supplies or financial support, text or call (916)862-8649
In recent years we have seen the number of our neighbors living outside continue to grow and though thousands are forced to live outside each night, there continues to be no legal, safe place for people to sleep or keep their personal belongings in our city. As this crisis expands, we see it coupled with a housing crisis that has been exacerbated by corporate landlords, contagious rent hikes, evictions and tenancy terminations. Working class, poor families and families of color are losing ground in Sacramento. But we are fighting back; against the stigmatization of our lives, the criminalization of our survival, and the normalization of this crisis in our community.
A very special thank you to Mark Merin and Cathleen Williams!
