DESCRIPTION:On Saturday, May 21st, members of our communities in Marin County will 
 “sleep out” to raise funds for Ritter Center programs and build 
 awareness about homelessness. In March, members of our Marin County 
 communities will register, create teams, and ask their friends, families, 
 and colleagues to sponsor their Sleepout with a donation to Ritter Center. 
 On the night of the event, teams will sleep in their backyards or cars, on 
 decks, living room floors, at campsites, and other uncomfortable places. 
 While it is in no way close to what individuals experiencing homelessness 
 endure, it is meant to be immersive and challenging. In 2021, few 
 participants were able to last the entire night.\n \nJust before the 
 Sleepout, participants will tune into a 90-minute, virtual program that 
 will provide fun, educational activities, raise awareness of and dispel 
 myths about homelessness, engage public officials, and recognize 
 fundraising achievements (a friendly competition).  The founder of Pathways 
 to Housing, Sam Tsemberis, PhD, who took the Housing First model worldwide, 
 will be a key speaker. Congressman Jared Huffman and Supervisor Damon 
 Connolly are confirmed to attend (others are pending confirmation). The 
 event features awards, entertainment, meditative sound bath yoga, 
 interviews, kids activities, and a silent auction (ending at 
 midnight).\n\nRegister at Sleepout.RitterCenter.org\nRegistration is 
 $25/person for ages 6+; FREE for ages 5 and under\n
