Today, we worked with someone on oxygen to keep them sheltered. We fought to keep a child with cystic fibrosis sheltered.

People are running out of their 80 days. We need you to step up. People need you.

1/ 4 yrs ago, was 6th night on steps. We were feeling impacts. Weighed on us that thousands were outside for no reason.

Tonight also worrying. With federal cuts & state policies we are seeing so many highly medically vulnerable exited to the street.

1/ yesterday would have been our 4th night, 4 years ago, it poured rain we were soaking wet. All our stuff soaking wet. Within a few hours we were able to get dry. SAME day over 2000 experiencing homelessness did NOT have people drying their belongings or bringing them food.

1/ Right now 4 years ago we would have been falling asleep on the State House Steps. The first night that the temperatures dropped a little. Just to the 40's & I was cold, did not handle it well. I also was a little scared. I was not experiencing homelessness, just a tiny window into it.

#vtpoli

1/ End Homelessness Vermont was born of necessity. 4 yrs ago yesterday we spent our first night on Statehouse steps. Now we serve over 2000 people/year, ongoing support to over 500 with disabilities & 196 with extremely high needs.

We were so heartened to not only see the passage of the Budget Adjustment Act but the clear growth in understanding of the crisis. It is powerful and amazing to see those who are standing alongside those with the least.

On to the Senate next.

#vtpoli #crisisinvt #housed802 #endhomelessness

Budget Adjustment Act as passed by the House will support VTers housing needs & keep people sheltered until June 30th.

Thank you to all who voted to meet this moment with common sense & compassion!
