1st meeting of the Organizing Legal Committee for the Santa Cruz Homeless Union

Union attorney and activist anthony Prince will advise folks on how to make legal filings, fight tickets and provide safe strategies for interacting with the police. He will also facilitate a discussion on organizing self-represented legal resistance to any “Move-Along!” orders for homeless camps for survival campers without shelter options (i.e. nearly everyone).

A group will be gathering at 1:30 PM Wednesday at the Ross Hero's Camp and walking to the meeting together as well.

There will be home-baked cake, bread, cheese and refreshments.

"The panel held that, as long as there is no option of sleeping indoors, the government cannot criminalize indigent, homeless people for sleeping outdoors, on public property, on the false premise they had a choice in the matter."
