This was all so preventable. Those with lived experience have told us what they need, and destroying their belongings certainly isn't it. The City and the State have the resources to house, feed and treat all the people living at Mass and Cass. Why haven't we?
MAAP staff, organizers & concerned press are now standing in front of a community members tent as a city of Boston public works excavator is taking down tents feet from where heโs being evicted from. This is reckless & potentially deadly intimidation.

More polispeak/ making it sound so easy. These people have deep rooted issues that are not simply resolved by throwing resources at them. โPreventableโ. LOL! Another woke Monday morning QB. If you pander your way to a win, youโll find out how reality vs twitter works

As an outreach worker, working in New Market with our unhoused neighbors, I know the city is NOT doing as promised. People have frostbite, survival gear destroyed, searching through trash for ID's, arrested in line for medication, DISGUSTING.
