Join us in celebrating 35 years of Street Sheet at our Anniversary Party & Fundraiser on December 11th. This event not only marks a significant milestone for the organization but also serves as a crucial fundraiser to support ongoing mission. We are also advocating for housing justice with a press conference on the Montgomery Bus Boycott's lessons. Additionally, we are rallying against the SFMTA's RV ban. Together, we can amplify our voices for those who are unhoused. Let's make a difference! #StreetSheet #HousingJustice #Fundraiser #Advocacy #CommunitySupport

Next Tuesday, October 29th, join us and @wheredowegoberkeley for a panel discussion on the Bay Area's war on the unhoused. We'll be discussing new developments from the state and local level since the Supreme Court's decision on Grants Pass earlier this summer, subsequent impacts on our unhoused neighbors, and modes of resistance that have blossomed in the streets of Berkeley over the past few weeks. Berkeley City College Auditorium, 1:30PM. See you there ❤️‍🔥⛺️❤️‍🔥
