Increase of Homeless Children in Northern California Continues.......
Redding Loaves and Fishes has been working hard to defend the
constitutional rights of the poor and homeless men, women, children, and veterans here in Redding and Shasta County, California. Here is a recent radio interview discussing one of the civil rights issues. http://www.ijpr.org/audio/Homeless%2...%205-31-07.mp3 RHA provided requested information to the office of Senator Denise Ducheny, who is sponsoring Senate Bill 303. Among other things, SB 303 will require California cities to designate land specifically for low- income housing, including housing to accommodate "the elderly, persons with disabilities, families with female heads of households, and persons in need of emergency shelter." This bill would prohibit cities from changing the designation and selling this land for other purposes. It would also encourage cities to apply for state funding available through an infrastructure bond measure passed last year for the construction of low-income housing. Food and gas prices have risen, and so has hunger, both physical and spiritual in our community. We continue to see an increase in single mothers with children in extreme poverty, often on the verge of homelessness. At Redding Loaves and Fishes we believe the world is not looking for a better sermon on Christian Love, but a better demonstration of it. http://reddingloavesandfishes.com/mi...stry_blog.html |
