1/ This week I have been data gathering, trying to catch any errors for people being exited on June 15th.
Heartbreaking beyond words to sit in front of person after person, see their fear & not be able to help.
This is what I have seen so far. #vtpoli #crisisinvr

2/ 22 out of 45 I have interviewed so far have found recovery. Most SINCE entering the hotel program. We are about to rip that away. We know that it is near impossible to maintain recovery on the street. That data is clear. #vtpoli #crisisinvt
3/ 8 out of the 46 are escaping domestic violence, but can't get categorized as such. #vtpoli #crisisinvt
1/ Again, couldn't talk about it last night. The dystopian nightmare we are living leaves me in tears each day.
If you are explaining & not helping. Called grandstanding. This is a crisis, we need help. Reach out to ask how.
Here is what we saw/did....

2/ I started day emailing esd @ 7am, make sure they had an authorized rep form & fella who fell through the cracks didn't fall through again. Waited hours for a call. Found him a ride to next place he may only have until Mon. We will do this again, Mon. #vtpoli #crisisinvt
3/While waiting for hours for the call, I helped another person from the team of witnesses, help another woman who had been miscatagorized. We were able to get her back into the program. #vtpoli #crisisinvt.
1/ I just couldn't tweet after what I saw yesterday. I cried instead. And cried. And cried.
We are moving forward with treating human beings who need us the most in the worst ways.
We had 15 witnesses across the state & this is what we saw...

2/ Yesterday we saw people who went to the street who were suffering from an aneurysm & collapsed lung, were on oxygen, had hip surgery, were in recovery, had severe mental illness, worked full time, & more.
All whom meet the VT definition of dissability.

3/ Yesterday people were exited who were not categorized correctly by DCF under Domestic Violence were sent back to their abusive ex or to the street. ESD is now not honoring the legislative guidance if they try to get categorized correctly through June 30. #vtpoli #crisisinvt.
I wonder what it is like to have to argue that it is legally appropriate for people to be unhoused. It is part of the job. That said, I think I would have to resign in protest. #vtpoli
DCF has been doing no such thing as screening. #vtpoli
