We filed a brief in partnership with @PathwaysDC, @CommunitySols, and a pro bono legal team to call attention to the damaging impacts of criminalizing homelessness. As service providers we know firsthand that fines and jail time don’t end homelessness. #HousingNotHandcuffs

@jesserbnwtz Yes! @PathwaysDC was proud to partner with @CommunitySols, @OpenTableNash, and @relmanlaw to file one of those briefs with 226 signatories of service orgs all over the country! Thank you for your work on this Jesse!
Today, nearly 40 court briefs were filed on behalf of 1000 individuals and organizations telling SCOTUS that punishing homelessness with arrest and fines is cruel, harmful, and bad policy. Here's an ongoing thread 🧵of some of our partners' powerful statements:

Today (12/16/23) has officially been named Homeless Persons Memorial Day in Nashville. As we honor those we lost consider making a donation to one of our many local homeless advocacy organizations. @OpenTableNash spearheaded today's memorial: opentablenashville.org/donate/
Every year we gather to remember and honor our friends from the homeless community who have died. The 2023 Annual Homeless Memorial will take place at 8:30 AM tomorrow at the Riverfront Park. The memorial will also be live-streamed on our Facebook page. All are welcome. ❤️

“For too long, our nation has gutted funding for public housing & thrown our tax dollars to policing & prisons. We work for the day when all handcuffs are welded into house keys, where the jails are empty and homes are full.” - India Pungarcher & Chaplain Lindsey Krinks…
“If overturned, #JohnsonvGrantsPass will perpetuate health disparities and cause more unhoused people to suffer and die prematurely. It will make it harder for them to get the care and services they need.” - @BobbyWatts6 @NatlHCHCouncil #HousingNotHandcuffs
“I have hope because the solutions to homelessness are possible when we welcome our neighbors inside. When we look around our community for spaces not being used and say ‘That could be someone’s home.’” - @AmandaAndere @funderstogether #HousingNotHandcuffs#JohnsonVGrantsPass
“Housing is safety for domestic and sexual violence survivors. […] Why should one have to make a choice to continue to be abused or to live outside?” - Dr. Wendy B. Mahoney @nnedv #JohnsonVGrantsPass #HousingNotHandcuffs
“In St. Louis, our Black residents are 4x more likely to be unhoused than white residents. 20% of the children who attend Saint Louis Public Schools (~80% Black) experience housing insecurity.” - @AlderSonnier #JohnsonVGrantsPass #HousingNotHandcuffs
“This case is about housing justice, racial justice, LGBTQ+ equality, disrupting a poverty to prison cycle, and whether we want to be a nation where everyone, regardless of background, productivity under capitalism, or lack of resources can survive.” @ItsDanaWhite @miriamskitchen
How to solve homelessness: ✅Create & preserve affordable housing ✅Fund rental & homelessness assistance programs ✅Accessible healthcare “These things happened just a few years ago for the pandemic—our government made it happen. It is a choice.”…
“The only thing we lack to end homelessness is the POLITICAL WILL to fund proven solutions at scale. Homelessness is a choice – not of the people who experience it, but of the policymakers who create, sustain and worsen it.” - @dianeyentel @NLIHC
“Our nation has a dark historic legacy of punishing people of color for being poor, particularly Black communities and indigenous people. If the policy of Grants Pass is overturned, we will return to that horrendous reality.” - Efrén Olivares @splcenter #JohnsonVGrantsPass
“Whether we’re homeless or one emergency away from homelessness, we want jobs and health care, NOT death in the streets. We want #housingnothandcuffs. We are not alone, and we are here to fight poverty, not the poor!” - Rev. Dr. Savina Martin @MA_PPC #JohnsonVGrantsPass
“For too long, our nation has gutted funding for public housing & thrown our tax dollars to policing & prisons. We work for the day when all handcuffs are welded into house keys, where the jails are empty and homes are full.” - India Pungarcher & Chaplain Lindsey Krinks…
Livestream of powerful speakers, soon to include @ipungarcher & Lindsey of @OpenTableNash here:
We’re streaming live from the #HousingNotHandcuffs Rally! x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
@OpenTableNash filed an Amicus brief in support of the plaintiffs of this case. Tragically, Debra Blake, the original plaintiff, passed away before she got into housing. We are here today for Debra and for every single person who has ever experienced homelessness.
We’re here for Johnson vs Grant’s Pass - to demand that SCOTUS reject the notion that sleeping outside, even when people have nowhere else to go, is a crime punishable by law. Right now, camping on public land is a FELONY in Tennessee. This is cruel & unusual punishment.
Yesterday am, our friend was sleeping on the steps of the Supreme Court. Last night we passed on the way to dinner & promised to return w/ food. When we came back, he was nowhere to be found- police had kicked him out & erected hundreds of barriers. This morning, we’re back! 1/
