Advocacy group: Camping bans like Denver's "criminalize homelessness"

Denver Post column on the latest NLCHP report.

No Safe Place: The Criminalization of Homelessness in U.S. Cities [PDF]

The NLCHP has released a new version of their report on the criminalization of homelessness based on a survey of 187 American cities. This is the 11th edition of the report; the last one was released in 2011.

"The report shines a spotlight on the fact that still far too many cities criminalize the basic life actions that homeless people have no choice but to perform in public."
