We were handing out extra supplies after outreach near the Inside Safe hotel where many of our community members were sent. We ran into someone who we'd lost touch with. He'd been kicked out of the hotel but still hasn't gotten his property, including his phone back.

One of our volunteers received this message about today's Inside Safe operation. The person in question chose transportation over staying with their neighbors, only to lose their community and their independence.

Screenshot of a text message that says: Good late evening [redacted], so today we where picked up by the mayors office and placed in a motel room while we get permanent housing. I was initially going to go to the [redacted]. But since they didn't allowed for me to take a scooter their and also for my safety. I was sent to the [redacted]. They helped me carry my scooter their. After I was done signing paper work and I was assigned to a room. I was told I can't have my scooter with me. I have no other way to get around

The mayor's office is conducting two Inside Safe operations around Ktown over the next week. Both of these sites have service providers and ongoing casework that has identified specific needs of the encampment and has placements underway. At one location, two people were on a list for tiny homes.

The sweeps in Ktown and the police harassment have gotten relentless. At night, we see so many more people sleeping on sidewalks with just a blanket. No tents, no shelter, no safety. But during the day, they've become harder to find. One couple we know has gotten pushed all the way across Ktown.

We must be at the "aggressive crackdown" phase of election season. Today we had a huge number of requests for tents, reports of aggressive sweeps & arrests, increased police harassment, and calls from neighbors we couldn't find after displacement. They are hungry, tired, and struggling.

We lost a beloved community member and his partner needs help to pay for funeral costs. One of our volunteers spent months helping her claim her remains. Her spot is scheduled to be swept the day after the funeral and the city refuses to reschedule. If you can help, please do. gofund.me/436b76a18

One of our volunteers advocated for more trash cans. The nearby encampment wasn't getting enough trash pickup for its own needs, let alone for the illegal dumping it was getting. The city councilmember added several trash cans, a simple, cost-effective alternative to pricey, ineffective sweeps.

A few of our members arrived to monitor a CalTrans sweep today. CalTrans didn't show up, and it's not clear when they might in the next week. Property will supposedly be held for 60 days, but the number to retrieve that property is blank.

Section of a notice on a wire fence noting that folks had to vacate from March 29 to April 4th and that their propert would be held for 60 days. The area for the number they should call to retrieve their property is blank.
