A Place at the Table: Prohibitions on Sharing Food with People Experiencing Homelessness
1390 Views
Description:
This report specifically focuses on ordinances, policies, and tactics that discourage or prohibit individuals and groups from sharing food with homeless persons. Uncomfortable with visible
homelessness in their communities and influenced by myths about homeless people’s food access, cities use food sharing restrictions to move homeless people out of sight, an action that
often exacerbates the challenges people experiencing homelessness face each day just to survive. (Authors)
