The Tent City Collective (TCC) is partnering with Tent City 3 in an effort to bring the community onto the University of Washington’s campus. Tent City 3 regularly moves throughout Seattle and has successfully been hosted by other institutions of higher learning, including Seattle University and Seattle Pacific University. In light of the staggering rate of homelessness in King County and citywide policy changes, we have revitalized an effort started by Dr. Amy Hagopian and Dr. Peter House of the School of Public Health. This year’s One Night Count reported a 21% increase in homelessness. By encouraging UW to host tent cities, we can address issues surrounding homelessness by providing a community experiencing homelessness with a safe host site and by increasing student engagement. UW boasts a commitment to our local and global community as well as an emphasis on “groundbreaking multidisciplinary learning and teaching.” Hosting a tent city would provide students, faculty and community members with the opportunity to integrate academics with real world challenges. Seattle University’s experiences with Tent City 3 demonstrate that hosting a tent city inspires relationship building between students and residents. We hope that by cultivating positive interactions we can reduce societal stigmatization of those experiencing homelessness and encourage involvement and advocacy. We ask community members and students in the U District to join us in solidarity as we hold the University of Washington accountable for its commitment to our community and our most vulnerable neighbors. To show your support for this campaign, please sign our petition. If you have further questions or concerns please contact the Tent City Collective via [email protected] . We are happy to provide more background information on our campaign and goals. Any and all support provided is appreciated! We also encourage you to explore the Seattle Pacific University's info page for a vision of how higher education and tent cities can work together in Seattle: https://spu.edu/events/tentcity/

Please sign this petition to support our Tent City Collective Campaign in their work to bring Tent City 3 to campus!

Too bad we weren't able to snap a better picture. Today, we honored Nancy Amidei as a social justice superhero badass with our HEC “cape” at the Health Sciences Service Learning and Advocacy Summit! (second photo is the rockstar you all know as Kelsen Caldwell!)

UW's Health Equity Circle is holding an action assembly with Sound Alliance to pressure County Executive Dow Constantine to commit to transparency and community participation in the decision-making and implementation process. Health Equity Circle organizes to exercise power with communities, rather than to hold power over them. We need to stand in solidarity to ensure the levy fulfills that value by centering the voices of marginalized communities in King County. This is a phenomenal chance to see community organizing in action as well as show solidarity with the communities this levy affects.
