Issue Position: Responding to the Homeless Crisis

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2020
Issues: Unemployed and Low-Income Health and Health Care Housing and Property

Courtney wants everyone to have a safe, stable place to call home. She knows that lack of living wage, rising housing and childcare costs, healthcare expenses, and systemic oppression have exposed many Oregonians to extreme vulnerability across our State. She will continue to support equity in our institutions, as well as strategic upstream investments to curb homelessness such as:

*Addiction and mental health services
*Financial literacy in our education programs for all ages
*Bridge programs that can help people rebuild their lives after instability
*Veterans and women's services that respond directly to those in crisis
