Business Responses to Homelessness & COVID-19: The Good, Bad, and Ugly
Private businesses can play a powerful role in addressing homelessness. Join us Wednesday, September 9, 2020 at 2pm EDT, to hear about businesses around the country that have used their influence and resources to help house, feed, and serve America's growing unhoused population, and business efforts to keep unhoused people safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. You will also learn about the harmful ways that businesses and Business Improvement Districts have contributed to the rise and enforcement of policies criminalizing homelessness.
Featured speakers include:
- Tristia Bauman, Senior Attorney, National Homelessness Law Center
- Professor Sara Rankin, Director of Homeless Rights Advocacy Project at Seattle University Law School and Board Member of the Third Door Coalition
- Joe Calder, Law Clerk, Sullivan & Cromwell
