Check out this toolkit from Prosperity Indiana on effective ways to educate yourself about housing as the solution to homelessness, and advocate for our communities!

We've also created an abbreviated version of the toolkit to serve as an informational packet you can give directly to legislators when advocating.

The U.S. Supreme Court decision in Grants Pass v. Johnson effectively criminalizes people who are unhoused.

This decision to uphold local laws that criminalize sleeping in public spaces will directly impact and criminalize people who are unhoused. We agree that criminalizing homelessness is not a solution to the housing crisis. Instead, let’s turn to community centered responses and infrastructure, invest in affordable housing, and prioritize safe, stable places for people to live and thrive.
