The National Labor Relations Board found Voodoo Doughnut illegally fired Old Town employees who refused to work during the record-breaking heatwave in June. The company is expected to rehire the workers with back pay. https://t.co/AEjueVJH10

The data makes it clear, tenants in eviction court are not given a fair trial.

Eviction Representation for All will make sure all Multnomah County tenants are represented.

Unfortunately, this problem is not limited to Old Town, as the article implies. We deal with people having episodes frequently at R2DToo, as well as at C(3)PO when we were managing it. It's tough.

Vancouver is experimenting with sanctioned homeless camps—something Portland will be introducing by the end of 2021. https://t.co/gy9iTl2K7X

NAYA’s been hosting FREE vax & testing events the 1st Thur. of the month. The next round is Oct. 7.

NARA Wellness Center. You can access drive-up testing on Tue, Wed, & Thu.

the decision to make sanctioned encampments part of the service landscape turns them into leverage for law enforcement; like a shelter bed offer, turning down an offer to stay in an encampment can result in a person being branded as “service-resistant.” https://t.co/weotFHTkXw

Editorial: Portland City Council will vote on a new contract with Clean & Safe Wednesday. The current contract promised improved sanitation and safety services, but ties to Portland Business Alliance raise questions about who benefits from the program.

@andersem The problem is making a market out of basic necessities that people need to survive. There has to be a way to guarantee access to basic necessities, even within a market system.

Thanks to Michael Lee Ryan, one of our awesome board members.

@2020tho @hello__caitlin I had to turn off the lights for the Orthodox Jews on my floor in my college dorm. They couldn't have the RA do it because she was Jewish.

[Right 2 Dream Too @Right2DreamToo]

Yes, it does sound familiar!

[steph routh @stephrouth]

Funny, this sounds a lot like a dark money 501(c)(4) recently started in Portland. Is this some dubious franchise, or a bad idea run amok?

Delgado's family is "disappointed but not surprised." That pretty much sums it up.

...and a lot of Portland's unhoused stayed there when they really needed off the streets. It's a shame it has been closed since 2017. That's a lot of people denied a resource while the city dithered.

The Joyce was the place we put our first ever guest at R2DToo, while we worked on getting him housing and healthcare. (Aging & Disability came through for him and us!) It wasn't luxurious, but it was safe and cheap, /1
