You may have heard about the findings of #ucsf bhhi's recent study on statewide #homelessness. But did you know that the team behind the project has members who are or were #Unhoused ?

I hope you take that lesson to heart and rise above the politics of feeding the hungry and housing the homeless, among other noble endeavors, and extend a helping hand instead.

We could all really use it. 3/3

Again, I walk out and there’s a YOUNG Black homeless guy trying to build a shelter in the doorway, and another sleeping with a large red plastic over the top half of his body.

We need more compassion, not less. Happy #Juneteenth? Happy #pridemonth ?

honestly I don't check if people are alive when they're sleeping in the doorway because I'm afraid they won't be

anyway, i brought back a Wise bagel with shmear for each one of people taking refuge in our doorways. it's woefully inadequate and why our government needs to step up and house the homeless, among other compassionate actions. #sanfrancisco #sfpol #housethehomeless #SFPeoplesBudget

A reminder for everyone.

Every morning when I leave our home there is heartbreak waiting for me in our building’s doorway. Last night homeless people built their own shelter in the doorway using those 🟧 3 ft high street dividers as a wall & cardboard as a roof.

LACK OF compassion is killing people.

Ever since my teens I have wanted desperately to do something direct about this issue. Don't get me wrong; I do what I can by way of money, food, etc. Both individually and by donation. But I've always wanted to help to actually #HouseTheHomeless.

I wish I were the type of person with the connections and resources to do that.

Proponents of tax cuts say we should let philanthropy take care of our social issues but when I look around I still see homeless people on the streets while the wealth of the 1% continues to grow. #housethehomeless #povertyisapolicydecision #TaxTheUltraRich

“Christmas is built upon a beautiful and intentional paradox; that the birth of the homeless should be celebrated in every home.”
— Gilbert K. Chesterton

Please spare what you can to those in desperate need this Christmas. #helpthehomeless #housethehomeless

Never take a photo of those on the streets without engaging and asking, they are vulnerable and the street provides no safeguards. They all have a story to tell, let's make time to stop and listen.
