The federal government recommends individuals spend no more than 30% of income on rent (including utilities). It doesn’t reflect today’s financial reality. Study after study shows a link between rising rent and homelessness. People are getting priced out of having homes. #eugeneoregon

Cities can choose to criminalize homelessness....or they can respond to the homelessness crisis with real solutions. Sweeps & bans don't work. Decades of evidence have taught us that affordable housing, wraparound support, mental health care, job training, tenant protections, & rent assistance do.
