June 15 is 15 days until NYC’s hotel funding for people exiting jail and people in unsafe shelter conditions expires. We need action NOW to keep people safe for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, and to ensure that system-impacted people have access to permanent, safe housing in the future.
As we have seen, communities of color are disparately impacted by both COVID-19 and the injustice of the criminal legal system. Protests are demanding accountability to Black lives – investing away from police and towards structural change, including change to our housing systems and laws. Be part of the solution, as advocates demand housing access for people impacted by a racist criminal legal system. Rally with us!
