At a recent protest organized by local unhoused residents Antonia and her daughter Ana (pictured here) along with Stop The Sweeps demanded rights for the all of those without homes but especially those with disabilities and chronic illnesses like so many do.

Tragically, an unhoused woman named Rosemary Renteria recently died in her tent, and rather than help the others in the camp grieve and access lifesaving services, the city responded by sending in police to sweep her camp.

Ana said she worries that her mother Antonia, who has multiple illnesses, could be the next to die in an encampment. Austin is a wealthy city and can afford to do better by our unhoused residents. By giving them health care, housing, and other humanizing services. Check out recent coverage in the @austinchronicle and follow @stopthesweepsatx for information on how to help. #HumanRights #poverty
