🧵 For the past 15 yrs. I’ve done volunteer street outreach in #Phoenix with our unsheltered community. I’ve also tracked the rise in our unsheltered folks dying + our alarming number of heat deaths, as well as advocated for common sense SOLUTIONS. Many people are out to make advocates + unsheltered folks the “bad guys” in this story, which is BS. This is basically a failure of city, county & state over a number of years to not act proactively or responsibly, creating the perfect storm we see today. A huge & complex issue.
