Why not fund Safe Parking?

Why not fund Safe Parking? If you have noticed that more people are being unhoused or displaced. If you own a vehicle where can you go to park safely and sleep?

What is one persons levels of affordability, is not likely another persons affordability. The distance is too wide.. What cities are doing,  is saying if you want…

Are Vehicles the next affordable shelter?

Are Vehicles the next affordable shelter? Safe Parking programs are starting to spruce up in cities, where there is a high “homeless population.”   Are Vehicles the next affordable shelter?
