Good afternoon Housing Not Handcuffs supporters,
Like you, we are waiting for the Supreme Court to announce its decision in the most important case about homelessness in decades. Our best guess is that they will issue the ruling in Johnson v. Grants Pass in late June, but the decision could come any day.
While we wait to hear the results of Johnson v. Grants Pass, we need your help to keep up the momentum and raise awareness about the many possible impacts this case may have on the 250,000+ people living outside, and the millions of Americans who are just one missed paycheck away from homelessness. To prepare, we have an upcoming webinar in collaboration with The New Republic, and a brand-new social media toolkit ready to share. Keep reading for more info.
