Western Regional Advocacy Project (WRAP) - visit their page for organizing tools, research and more resources! By bringing together some of the fiercest organizations fighting homelessness on the West Coast, WRAP has developed a unique structure that combines street outreach, movement building, and national policy work, helping us bridge the local-national divisions that have hampered homeless advocacy for the last three decades.

Solutions

STOP EVICTIONS, including those carried out by the City, aka the sweeps! Stop the criminalization of homelessness, which is driving people further into poverty. Prioritize funding housing and services for those who need it most, like the historic PropC/Our City Our Home win that will more than double SF’s entire budget for homelessness.

MODELS
