Each year, the Law Center honors and celebrates leaders who raise awareness about and advance solutions to homelessness and poverty. The prestigious awards are presented to innovative change-makers who are fighting for a future where everyone has a place to call home.   This year, the Law Center is proud to present the Bruce F. Vento Award to Representative Joyce Beatty. Rep. Beatty represents Ohio’s 3rd District, and has been a longtime leader in working for solutions to homelessness and poverty. She sponsored the Homeless Veterans Legal Services Act in Congress, and has advocated for increased funding to prevent youth homelessness, as well as worked to improve reporting on homelessness. The Bruce F. Vento Award is given to individuals and institutions with proven leadership in the fight to end homelessness and poverty, and Representative Beatty’s congressional record stands for itself in that regard.   We hope you will join us at the McKinney-Vento awards to celebrate Representative Beatty Tickets are on sale now, and you can also become a sponsor here.
