Business Responses to Homelessness & COVID-19: The Good, Bad, and Ugly
Private businesses can play a powerful role in addressing homelessness.

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.
