STAGING A DEMONSTRATION FOR STATE OF EMERGENCY ON HOMELESSNESS AND POVERTY
To ask citizens to step up and gather at city hall, to stage a gathering for state of emergency on homelessness
We have seen 700 beds vanish, from shelters closing down in the city, and 300-350 people in the code blue shelter every night, and it has been deterating, ever since, where will they go, and what is going to happen to the poor. This is a travesty, and with housing being such as it is, we need to call a state of emergency in front of city hall, if anyone is interested in participating get in touch with LINDA SAFLEY-443-708-1966, OR MR. PURNELL at the Men's Center. What is it going to take to move people's hearts and minds, the reality, it's cold, no one wants to be in the cold, cold. Poverty is at an all time high, and getting worse.
