Friend --
Do you believe housing should be a constitutional human
right in California?
So do we.
Join us on Thursday, April 11th for
a town hall to hear more about the efforts to realize housing as a
human right in California with special guests:
- Former
United Nations Rapporteur Leilani Farha
- California Assemblymember Matt Haney, author of ACA
10
- Policylink’s Housing Director Rasheedah Phillips,
and
- Professor Farah Hassen.
Event co-hosts include UCLA’s
Promise Institute on Human Rights, Alliance of Californians for
Community Empowerment (ACCE), Housing Now!, ACLU California Action,
Policy Link, National Homelessness Law Center, Power CA Action, and
Western Center on Law and Poverty.
What: Panelists
will explore how international human rights principles can inform our
housing justice work in California, how a human rights framework
applies to housing policy at the state and local levels, as well as
the status of the campaign to pass ACA 10 -- a bill to enshrine the human right to housing in the state
constitution. Audience Q&A to follow.
When: Thursday,
April 11, 4-5:30pm
Where: The event
will be mostly virtual via Zoom, but there will be a small gathering
in Los Angeles for anyone who wants to join in-person.
-
In-person details:
Room 1337 at the UCLA School of
Law campus, located at 385 Charles E Young Dr E, Los Angeles, CA
90095.
We hope to see you
there!
