GREENLAKE HOMELESS ADVOCATES
‘the bridge that can’t be burned’
Our Story
Greenlake Homeless Advocates (GHA) was created in 2019 by my daughter, Jane, and I for the purpose of connecting homeless individuals with case management and services that lead to housing.
what we do
Today, the work of Greenlake Homeless Advocates centers around two areas:
1. We go out to street encampments that are facing imminent sweeps. At these encampments, we connect with the residents and help them navigate the sweep process in order to optimize their outcomes during these difficult and traumatic events.
2. We follow as many sweep displaced campers as we can, either to their new transitional housing facilities or to street relocation sites.
get INVOLVED
Most of us want to help make our world a better place but we hesitate because we worry that, somehow, we’ll fall short or “make things worse”. Be assured that any of your efforts to help desperate folks living on the streets will make things better.
