How the Supreme Court ruling impacts California’s efforts to clean up our streets

Go inside the historic decision with lawyers involved in the case and hear from policy experts on what cities and counties can now do to address homelessness in their communities following the ruling

The Supreme Court’s recent decision in Grants Pass v. Johnson represents the lifting of a major legal logjam that has hindered the efforts of local governments in California and across the country to clean up homeless encampments and alleviate rising homelessness on our streets.

Join PRI on Thursday, August 1 for an informative webinar discussion featuring one of the lawyers who represented Grants Pass before the Supreme Court, PRI’s adjunct fellow and one of America’s top constitutional lawyers who drafted PRI’s amicus brief in the case, and PRI’s team of policy experts.
