WRAP has the power of collective mobilization whil

WRAP has the power of collective mobilization while remaining accountable to the realities of local communities. By bringing together some of the fiercest organizations fighting homelessness, for 21 years WRAP has developed a unique structure that combines documented street outreach, movement building, and national policy work, helping us bridge the local-national divisions that have hindered homeless organizing for the last four decades.

Check out WRAP sweeps handout to learn the truth d $Check out WRAP sweeps handout to learn the truth directly from the streets on the impact of sweeps! WRAP members continue to fight sweeps in their communities through utilizing documented street outreach to dispel stereotypes on what a “sweep” actually is. Sweeps fracture communities, displace people, & damage physical and mental health. When asked, what alternatives/services were people offered? 88% were not offered any services and 74% had all of their belongings thrown away at the sweep. Sweeps are not a solution to addressing homelessness but rather another phase in the cycle of homelessness! This handout is available for use! Go to bit.ly/wrapsweepszine to download.

Sweeps are a way to push people further into the m

Sweeps are a way to push people further into the margins of society and out of the public eye. They are a sham response to a manufactured issue. Sweeps will never solve homelessness, instead they play into the vicious cycle of homelessness.

Organizers keep fighting back! Our outreach to the community tells us the trends of criminalization, dehumanization, & a gap in actually moving towards viable solutions are on full display.

Criminalization of poor and unhoused people will continue to expand so long as the reins on America’s neoliberal approach to fiscal and social policy remain untethered.

We must seek the commonalities between our communities in order to thread the power of our organizing together!

For 21 years, we’ve worked alongside @lacanetwork_

For 21 years, we’ve worked alongside @lacanetwork_official and other local groups, with community outreach guiding all our campaigns.

The #Right2Rest Bill was introduced in Colorado, Oregon, and California, and WRAP member groups in all three states built it together from the same outreach to our collective community.

It lost nine times across those states.

The point was never just the bill. The point was the movement behind it. #HousekeysNotSweeps #HousekeysNotHandcuffs #WeWillNotDisappear

As part of our 21st Anniversary Celebration, we hosted an IG Live conversation between Paul and General Dogon with @lacanetwork_official about why WRAP was created: the idea of building a broader network of community organizations down for the serious fight for dignity and respect for our communities.

We know that our job as organizers is to connect accountable organizations and build power collectively, because that makes us all stronger, it makes us all smarter, and it gives us more skills. #WRAP21 #HousekeysNotSweeps #HousekeysNotHandcuffs

The systems are doing what they were built to do:

The systems are doing what they were built to do: displace people, criminalize poverty, protect profit. WRAP + our members organize and fight for dignity and respect.

Every one of us has a role right now; If you have resources, you make space for the folks with time, skills, & energy to work that magic. Every dollar keeps us moving.

$21, $210, or $2,100...it all keeps WRAP + members in sync. Link in bio!

Every day we witness the criminalization of povert

Every day we witness the criminalization of poverty and homelessness where local governments across the country unleash the force of the State against people forced to live in public space. Blaming unhoused people for the fact homelessness exists while they continue to ignore the devastation of public and affordable housing program for people.
