Here There camp in Berkeley, California<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

First they came for the homeless<\/a> on Facebook<\/p>\n\n\n\n

February 22, 2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today at camps second anniversary celebration, I noticed a few familiar faces. The faces belonged to homeless I have seen on the streets of Berkeley for years. I remember how they looked. Stressed, tired, worn out. Today I saw smiling eyes in all of them. I saw enjoyment. They were happy. They were relaxed. Why? Because they were home. Without a house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The city has done very little voluntarily to help us. They spent a lot of money trying to stop us. Now it’s been two years. Every time I go there, it’s a little further down the block. Every time I go there, I see a lot of new faces. To me, that means a decent amount of people are moving on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And a few have come back. I saw a few old friends. Considering these peoples issues, I’m very happy camp has become a safety net for them. Without camp, it would be a doorway, to a mental breakdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you to all the current and former residents of the Here There camp. This is happening because of you. You made it work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See you in a year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
