Today is National Homeless Persons' Memorial Day. This day of awareness takes place each year on the longest night of the year, the winter solstice (usually December 21st).

2020 marks the 30th Annual Homeless Persons' Memorial Day. The pandemic and the upcoming expiration of eviction moratoria and unemployment benefits is threatening a winter of exploding homelessness. While we remember those we have lost this year, we cannot let this be the start of another 30 years of growing homelessness.

Please make plans to attend the national Virtual Memorial today, December 21, at 4 pm EST/3 pm CT/1 pm PST.
