‼️Our relatives cannot shelter safely outside due to ICE escalation. MIWRC offers a culturally grounded low-barrier sanctuary; services, warmth, food, safety, & support obtaining tribal ID’s/documents.

This is survival. This is sovereignty. We take care of us.

"Minneapolis had considered taking a page from St. Paul‘s approach to managing encampments, with the Minneapolis City Council voting this month to provide toilets and dumpsters, but Mayor Jacob Frey vetoed the measure.." www.startribune.com/st-paul-home...

Get mad, but use it. Sitting and reading more things to make you more mad is just going to hurt.

Frey’s proposed 2026 budget defunds them, but emergency housing vouchers are funded in the 2025 budget; MPHA implemented the operational needs to get vouchers out in Q3 for resident use. It’s now Q4 & sitting in CPED. 100 vouchers could be in use right now: 50 for single residents, 50 for families.
Continues to be striking how, since Frey erected the greenway fence to Lake/Nicollet, the crowd has returned en masse to 2900 block of Blaisdell. Frey bleats “you can’t have encampments by home & businesses“ but that’s exactly where he’s pushed these folks. Meanwhile 50 housing vouchers go unfunded.

Perpetually relevant - ESPECIALLY: ask the residents what they want and need, and don't promise things you can't do!

NENOOKAASI V. FREY update

The City is trying to get the case thrown out via a motion for summary judgment.
This is the final hurdle: if we win this argument, we go to trial.

It is absolutely soul crushing that this is what happens to our most marginalized neighbors following a tragedy. Nobody should be ok with this.

A community members car was broken into & her sacred items were taken. She is offering a reward for the return of her items. No questions asked.
