I don’t think I’ve ever met Mari (a pseudonym), but her story is so deeply familiar to me and the things I’ve witnessed here in the States. Homelessness triggering Long Covid ME, triggering continued homelessness. Caregiver abuse that goes unrecognized as DV. Complete absence of social services.

Deloitte has HUGE contracts for administering Medicaid application systems across multiple states and 'errors' like this can be life-threatening.
npr.org
Deloitte-run systems denied Medicaid to disabled people. New laws could make it worse
Complex computer systems that decide whether people get Medicaid benefits have a history of errors. Now, changes to comply with Trump's tax and domestic policy law are inundating those systems.

Health Justice Commons @hjcommons.bsky.social · 14/07/2026
On July 14th, 1970, the Young Lords reclaimed Lincoln Hospital, a healthcare facility in the South Bronx, NY, for 12 hours. They advocated for a people’s hospital with better healthcare.
The background is a black-and-white photograph of Black and Latinx members of the Young Lords assembled in the street on one side of the image and a crowd of onlookers and protesters — several of whom are children — on the other. A banner toward the back of the image says, “The hospital belongs to the people.” A brick building is behind everyone. In the foreground is white text that says: “July 14, 1970. Young Lords’ Takeover of Lincoln Hospital.” The Health Justice Commons logo appears in the top right corner of the image.A dark grey background with a white line drawing in the foreground of Lincoln Hospital, pulled from an illustration by H. Cruzado. A large banner stretches between the wings of the hospital; it says, “Welcome to the people’s hospital.” Below this is dark grey text in a white rounded box that says, “56 years ago today, on July 14th, 1970, the Young Lords reclaimed Lincoln Hospital, a healthcare facility in the South Bronx, NY, for 12 hours. They advocated for a people’s hospital with better healthcare!” The Health Justice Commons logo appears in the top right corner of the image.In the background is a black-and-white photo from the Lincoln Hospital takeover. The building towers above as a small stream of people — some smiling — exit and descend the steps outside. Above their heads are white banners hanging from two windows. One says, “Welcome to the people’s hospital.” And the other says, “Bienvenidos al hospital de pueblo.” The photograph is overlaid with repeating white translucent text taken from an illustration by H. Cruzado that says, “Seize the hospitals!” In the foreground is dark grey text on a white rounded rectangle that says, “Among their demands were protected patient and workers’ rights, self-determination over their bodies and communities, as well as a focus on addressing the rampant lack of access to healthcare within their predominantly Black and Latinx community. The Young Lords’ organizing reminds us that withholding or controlling healthcare is one of the most pernicious and effective means of undermining peoples’ power and controlling our lives.” The Health Justice Commons logo appears in the top right corner of the image.In the background is a black-and-white photo in which a member of the Young Lords sits by a window sill. They’re wearing a beret and holding papers in their lap. The doorway is barricaded from top to bottom with large bags of salt and furniture. In the foreground is dark grey text on a white rounded rectangle that says, “An outcome of the Young Lords’ direct action and organizing was one of the first patient’s bill of rights in history. The practice of community acupuncture also emerged via the Lincoln Acupuncture Detox Collective.” The Health Justice Commons logo appears in the top right corner of the image.

Building alternatives to 911 must be rooted in prison abolition, anti-capitalism, & radical autonomy, esp for BIPOC communities. Otherwise, you're reproducing the same coercive, paternalistic, anti-Black, ableist systems under the guise of "community care," and gaining some capital along the way.

☀️🔥Extreme heat & psych meds: Did you know that psychiatric meds can impair the body’s ability to sweat, regulate temperature, or sense thirst? 🧊 As temps rise, folks on psych meds are at higher risk of heat stroke, dehydration, & medical crises. #PsychAbolition #ExtremeHeat #PsychMeds #MutualAid
Graphic with Project LETS logo on the bottom, and it reads, "Extreme Heat and Psychiatric Medications"Psychiatric meds can impair the body's ability to sweat, regulate temperature, or sense thirst. As temperatures rise, folks on psychiatric medications are at higher risk of heat stroke, dehydration, and medical crises-- especially antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, and some antidepressants.This isn’t just a medical issue. It’s an abolitionist issue.

Houseless folks, institutionalized people, and those in carceral mental health settings are often denied AC, water, or the right to leave overheated environments.

Many are forced onto meds without (informed) consent or support to taper safely.

Extreme weather is yet another way systemic neglect becomes lethal.
