Tent City to Defend Homeless Services
Stop Foreclosures
End Homelessness
Sept. 20-21
Noon - Morning
City Hall
68 Mitchell St. SW
Poor people are under attack in Atlanta. With foreclosures out of control and homelessness on the rise, the city government has responded with a campaign of harassment towards the homeless and service providers.
The Metro Atlanta Task Force for the Homeless is the most recent victim of a deliberate effort by the city to disrupt emergency services for the homeless. On June 22 the city turned off the water at the Task Force’s Peachtree Pine shelter for homeless men, leaving 575 people with no access to showers, sinks or toilets.
Don't let these injustices go unchallenged! Join us as we camp out in front of City Hall to demand justice for poor people and support the Task Force in their lawsuit against the city on Sept. 21st.
Program includes community discussion, food, and music.
