Yay! @SmallBiz DC FY 2022 budget reinstates funds for business incentive pilot (BIP), the 2nd of 2 (standalone public restroom pilot is in process).
Under BIP, a BID identifies 30 businesses spread out thru boundaries to receive incentive to open their restrooms to the public

Tonight, @Partnershipdc, volunteers, and outreach professionals will conduct the District's 2021 PIT Count.
Now, more than ever, it is crucial to understand the demographic characteristics, health conditions and locations of DC residents experiencing homelessness.

We know it’s been challenging for our seniors to register online for COVID-19 vaccination appts, so our team has been helping register Ward 1 seniors each time appts have opened up. If you know a Ward 1 senior who needs help registering or if you’d like to help out, let us know!

I believe protest is key to successful democracy, even when it is messy. Protest to create a better world and fight injustice is the “good trouble” that Congressman John Lewis encouraged us to get into. See my full statement here: edfordc.com/news/i-support-p…

In these days of uncertainty, everyone suffers but it is especially hard on people experiencing homelessness, joblessness or food insecurity.

This Thanksgiving will be different. We’re living in a new normal because COVID-19 has impacted life for all of us. One thing the pandemic did not stop is the number of people who need food, care and support.

.@Nnamdikid, w/o a doubt, DC needs more public restrooms. DC also needs WAY more housing that ends homelessness, like Permanent Supportive Housing.
Housing ends homelessness, saves lives, & is a human right.
We're so glad you're living up the leadership of PFC! @kojoshow
