New L.A. Mayor Karen Bass and new councilwoman Traci Park act to move homeless out of Venice encampment.
A program announced by Mayor Karen Bass in an effort to provide housing for people living in encampments is being implemented in Venice, officials announced Wednesday, Jan. 4.
“I’m proud to be locking arms with Councilwoman Park to change the way we approach homelessness in Los Angeles to bring people inside in a strategic and lasting way,” Bass said. “It may be impossible to fully understand the depths of despair and trauma associated with long-term encampments unless you’re living in them as an unhoused person or living beside them as a housed neighbor,” said Venice resident Connie Brooks, quoted in the press release. “Watching fellow humans disintegrating before your eyes nearly every single day for years– while rarely being able to get them help– is indelibly scarring to everyone involved.
