Resources. Saf[er] , legal, permit only tent sleeping outdoors?

Some of us are trying to formulate better option for when Bridge closes for the summer, April 15th, than forcing everyone out into illegal extremely dangerous space in and around the city camping. https://www.koat.com/article/first-safe-outdoor-space-for-homeless-opens-in-international-district/64383422 The idea being discussed by a few is an outdoor well-lighted space where folks verifyably working to better their lives can legally sleep from 6:00 p.m. until 6:00 a.m. one strike and your out. Security being provided simply by a security video camera, slightly stepped up police patrol, and bright lighting. Possibly a porta john, locked during daytime hours. The primary need is safe tenting night time only, taken down during the day. Only secondarily car. No additional Services as they are already available in the community, and there is no intention to create something that would be a magnet for people accepting the lifestyle of homelessness. That is not to disparage anyone. But what i...

It's the Environment

I must be the problem. It is not possible that such good people and such good Community including thousands of followers of Jesus would sit idly by while Souls needlessly die on the streets, in the pinon daycare center, in the jails, without doing everything in their power to save at least a few. It's not possible. It must be me. Somehow I must be blocking your efforts. What a wonderful discovery! I don't care how the life inside our community gets saved. I don't care what it cost me personally. I couldn't care less. If getting out of the way is the answer so that the people inside the agencies, inside the churchs, and in the broader community step up again, that's no price at all for me to pay. Cortez did it once to stop people's bodies from dying! They WILL do it again to stop the living beating Souls inside of at least 5 or 10 from dying every year here! And what's lacking is so simple. It's not brick and mortar we've got that. It's not armies...

Respect will save us in Cortez. Life will flourish as we never dreamed possible.

[Yes, there is no version of this clip without the watermark] Emilio didn't knock... and that disrespect killed him. The principle didn't see Emilio.. and that disrespect killed them both. Saturday and Sunday mornings McDonald's is one of the only welcoming places for our street kin. Everything else is closed. Or unwelcoming. There are customers in this restaurant that want the street folks out. All it takes is disrespect by we Street folks and a sign like this is going to go up. So far, the management here, is showing tremendous respect for the needs of my street kin. They are resisting putting up a sign like this. I've not been told this, but it's obvious. With virtually no exceptions our kin on the street are there because they have been badly wounded, badly infected by toxic environments. Blame won't change that. Denial won't change that. They need help. I needed help with my stage 4 cancer. I got it. Case management is a scalpel, whether it is held ...
