Share House and the Equity Gap in Vancouver's Shelter System
Published 3 weeks, 4 days ago
Description
Vancouver bans camping within 1,000 feet of Safe Stay communities and 1,500 feet of the new Bridge Shelter, but Share House residents have no comparable protection despite living in a shelter and working toward stable housing. Peter Bracchi examines why the city's equity standard applies to its newest programs but not its oldest shelter. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/opinion/letter-equity-and-safety-does-share-house-count/ #ShareHouse #Vancouver #Homelessness #Equity #ClarkCounty #VancouverWA #Shelter #HART #PublicSafety #Opinion
