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.

As more people continue to get connected with the Western Regional Advocacy Project (WRAP), we wanted to introduce ourselves to all of you. Check out this post to understand who we are!

Founded in 2005, WRAP is an organization that unites local community organizing groups with the common aim of fighting against the root causes of poverty & homelessness.

WRAP’s analysis of neoliberal policies expose the prioritization of profit and privatization of affordable housing over solving homelessness. This has resulted in the increase of homelessness & poverty across the country. Homelessness is an issue entrenched in the very fabric of federal cuts to affordable housing, ever changing policies and legislation.

WRAP members are spread across 5 states: California, Colorado, Oregon, Montana, & Washington. Our members are local groups from both city and rural contexts.
To keep WRAP accountable, our members drive our priorities by ensuring they’re grounded in the community.

Our strategies have the power of collective mobilization & are intended to be utilized locally & nationally. We emphasize the importance of community organizing so all of our resources can be used by the public in their work!

As an organization that is celebrating our 21st year as of March 2026, we are grateful for all the support and collaboration over the years! We know that the only way we win this fight is together so get connected with WRAP today & let’s continue to fight for our unhoused and poor neighbors!

Repression Breeds Resistance: Honoring Community O

Repression Breeds Resistance: Honoring Community Organizing

We must celebrate and honor that people remain steadfast in their commitment to organize as the US government has continued its mission of fascist dictatorial rule.
The tactics implemented by today’s American fascist dictatorship have long mirrored similar tyrannical tactics throughout history: “repression breeds resistance” is a relevant phrase now more than ever.

Organizers across the country have demonstrated that this resistance can take many forms and that’s our strength and our beauty as we build community locally and across the country.

Immigrants, queer & trans people, unhoused people, disabled people, people of color are the primary targets for oppression; however, under a fascist dictatorship, everyone becomes a target so long as you are advocating for basic human rights and not advancing the interests of the ruling class. Militarized police and immigration enforcement systems are created to protect fascists and their cronies from the pain and suffering they’re responsible for as they exploit the people’s wealth and resources. To protect the wealthy and politically elite, advancements must be made technologically and financially. Surveillance of pro-people movements have become widespread across the nation. Private security and local law enforcement agencies expanded, and the budget for the immigration and customs enforcement agency (ICE) spiked thanks to Trump’s Big Fascist Bill which rose from roughly $10 billion to a whopping $80 billion. When a country operates as a private enterprise for the exclusive profit of the ruling class, a core function of governance becomes violence, fear and oppression. Read More: https://conta.cc/4auPudt
