Combating Criminalization During COVID-19:

Getting People Housed and Keeping People Housed

The spread of COVID-19 has shed necessary light on the need for a right to housing. Individuals without stable housing face greater difficulty taking preventative actions and are more vulnerable to an outbreak of highly communicable diseases.

Please join our staff on Wednesday, April 22, as we launch a webinar series to discuss ways to challenge the criminalization of homelessness during the COVID-19 pandemic. This first webinar will focus on the Law Center’s tools and resources which aide in address the current pandemic, and will feature:

Eric Tars, Legal Director at the Law Center
Tristia Bauman, Senior Attorney at the Law Center

Please register for this first webinar on April 22, 2020, 11:00 AM PST / 2:00 PM EST at:

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

This biweekly webinar series will share the actions and legal strategies needed to ensure a right to housing both during the COVID-19 and moving forward. Keep an eye out for future themes and speakers!
