Housing & Homelessness

LOS ANGELES, CA - FEBRUARY 04: U.S. District Judge David Carter overseeing attempts to resolve the homelessness crisis in Los Angeles has called an urgent meeting under a tent in the parking lot of the Downtown Women's Center on Skid Row Thursday to discuss worsening conditions and what he considers the city's failure to respond to the recent rainstorm that threatened lives on downtown streets. Combined with the COVID-19 pandemic and soaring mental health and substance abuse issues, homelessness in the region is comparable to "a significant natural disaster in Southern California with no end in sight," U.S. District Judge David Carter wrote in an order filed late Sunday in federal court.
