Legislature Holds Homelessness
Hearing |
The California Assembly Committee on Housing and
Community Development will hold a hearing on Tuesday,
February 9th at 1:30 p.m. in the Capitol, Room 126, on
homelessness in California. Legislators will hear
testimony on what works to end homelessness and what
steps the state should take to address
homelessness. The hearing will include a period for
public comment. We hope anyone who can attend will
attend. A large audience will not only peak legislative
interest, but could attract media attention. For more
information, contact Sharon Rapport at CSH: sharon.rapport@csh.org |
