A challenge to end homelessness

The Joint Public issues team writes:
 

What will you do to end homelessness?

During the pandemic, we discovered that it was possible to practically end rough sleeping overnight, if the political will was there.

As we move forward together, we can’t just return to the way things were before, with mass rough sleeping across our cities and towns. It’s crucial that we respond now.

That’s why we want to start a conversation about what we can do differently to end homelessness. To do this, we need to invite those with lived experiences of homelessness to be central to any discussions we have as congregations.

Over the coming months, we’ll be amplifying the voices of people who have experienced homelessness, by sharing their stories and asking them what they want churches to do to end homelessness.
