Protect Homeless Families

Protect Homeless Children at Imminent Risk of Having to Stay in Unsafe Places! Require DHCD to Provide Shelter to Homeless Families at “Imminent Risk of Staying in Places Not Meant for Human Habitation” by Amending Item 7004-0101 in the FY 13 Budget

Why is this important?

Every day homeless families flood the offices of advocacy organizations, trying to find shelter. Last year a change in regulations has led to more than 70% of the homeless families who apply for shelter being turned away. We cannot allow families to to suffer!
