Due to the COVID-19 coronavirus, effective immediately Charlie's Place will halt our usual breakfast service for the next two weeks, and transition to a bagged meal distribution for our clients. Volunteers should not come to serve at Charlie's Place during this time. 1/3
Because our mission is to provide meals almost every day of the week, we happily accept perishable food items like sandwich ingredients as donations! #donations #homelessness #loveyourneighbor

.@HUDgov’s 2020 #AHAR #PIT Part 1 report, released this morning, shows an alarming increase in overall #Homelessness since 2019 – and that’s before #COVID19 made the crisis worse.
HUD is fighting to #EndHomelessness and make housing a right.

We agree with @SecFudge when she says "As a nation, we have a moral responsibility to end homelessness, & we know how to do it"
@MayorBowser, if you agree, prove it in your upcoming budget by investing $100 million to end chronic homelessness for 3,100 households.

This is your periodic reminder that it is beyond f**ked up that homelessness exists.
Don't get used to seeing people sleeping outside. Don't think it is normal. Don't think it is inevitable.
Homelessness is a choice made by our elected officials, not by those experiencing it.
