Ron Book, Chair of @HomelessMiami, routinely imposes policies that align more with the interests of his private sector clients, including private prison companies, rather than the needs of Miami’s most vulnerable residents.

Take a peak into the Homeless Solidarity Sleepover we held in Miami Beach over the weekend: https://t.co/xHXkHtg5Go

Thank you to all our partners and friends for supporting this powerful event.

Nearly half of all arrests in the City of #MiamiBeach this year have been of people experiencing homelessness. And more than half of those are Black. Miami Beach has returned to its ugly racist history as a sundown town.

We demand the City end this cruel and ineffective policy.

[Miami Coalition to Advance Racial Equity @miaracialequity]

Nearly half of all arrests in the City of #MiamiBeach in 2024 have been of people experiencing homeless. That is unacceptable. We the people demand the City put an end to this cruel and ineffective policy and focus on #HousingFirst solutions.

Mayor Meiner shared the only news coverage that didn’t feature our protest to push his propaganda that arresting poor people who can’t afford a home is “helping” them. Hit the retweet button if you agree.

[Miami Beach Mayor Steven Meiner @StevenMeiner]

Operation Summer Relief aims to end homelessness in Miami Beach by providing shelter placement and mental health care to those living on the streets with enhanced enforcement when necessary. The city will have all hands on deck for the month of August to offer a lifeline to those experiencing homelessness.
