Do you know how important the Urban Rest Stop is for homeless people who are working or looking for work and housing? A shower and clean clothes can be the difference between getting a job and not getting a job, between keeping a job and losing a job, between getting an apartment and not getting an apartment.  If the $200,000 budget is not added to the mayor's budget, this will negatively impact our ability to provide free showers, restrooms, and laundry on evenings and weekends. The Urban Rest Stop is the only hygiene facility open to everyone without regard to gender, age, and program participation.

Big thanks to all who have already written or called. Please email and call again.  Keep the pressure on!
