Orgs lobbying for California legislature to fix homeless epidemic?

Post date: 2018-04-20 09:08:09

What are some good organizations (either governmental, non profit, grassroots, or even religious) that are trying to pressure California legislators to fix our homeless epidemic?

I live in the SF Bay Area. Three of the top ten homelessness-per-capita cities are in California. I have family members who are homeless. I am a low income tenant. Given this, the issue of homelessness weighs heavy on my heart. Although I do some volunteer work based around other justice issues, I'm kind of new to action for the homeless. (So please excuse my cluelessness <3). I'd like to get involved with efforts to pass legislation, or at least follow those who are doing so.

As far as what I have to offer, I have art and design skills, communications skills, I do childcare and homecare, experience in direct action, and familiarity with consensus-based organizing. Any leads or suggestions?
