Across the state our communities are watching in horror as families are pushed into homelessness at unprecedented rates - many becoming unhoused for the first time in their lives.
Alameda and Contra Costa Counties saw homelessness increase 43% in just two years. Sacramento - 52%. San Francisco - 30%. Los Angeles County - 12%.
In the next two weeks, ACCE is gearing up to win a statewide bill that stops outrageous rent increases and unfair evictions. The Tenant Protection Act of 2019 (Assembly Bill 1482) needs to face both the state Senate floor and the Assembly concurrence votes by September 13th, and we’re willing to do whatever it takes to help us get there.
We're ramping up our biggest campaigns yet to fight displacement, rent gouging and unfair evictions across California - but we can’t do it without you. To succeed we need people and money. Our goal is to get 300 new monthly sustainers by midnight on Friday. Can we count on you be one of them?
