Meet immediate housing & shelter needs with wraparound mental health and rehabilitative services.
While we have a solid start to achieving much-needed housing, we must recognize the interconnectedness of mental health and substance abuse with the social and economic factors which exacerbate housing insecurity and houselessness.

When our schools struggle to fund music programs while billionaires in Washington amass more and more personal wealth, we must acknowledge that the economic system is deeply broken. Until we address this disparity, it will continue to worsen.
We must implement comprehensive tax and economic reforms to ensure that the health and well-being of our most vulnerable citizens is our top priority.
We must ensure a livable wage tied to local costs of living to ensure that workers must not risk their housing and food security to cover rising healthcare and prescription costs.
