CHCROP joins rally in Sacramento

California Homeless Civil Rights Organizing Project (CHCROP), consisting of homeless advocacy organizations from throughout the state, met for three days at the Sacramento Convention Center. Housing California held their Housing CA Conference 2001 at the Convention Center May 20 - 22, 2001. CHCROP members received scholarships from the conference so they could attend for free and be able to stay at the new Sheraton Hotel. This facilitated participation from at least 80 CHCROP members.

Sacramento Homeless Organizing Committee (SHOC) has been working with CHCROP since its first inception last year. Its been hard to get much done in the short amount of meeting time we have had previously. At the 3-day meeting we finally were able to accomplish a great deal, laying the ground floor, and are just about ready to roll.
