Factsheet: Racial injustice in Housing and Homelessness in the United States

For the U.S. review by the U.N. Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, the Miami Law Human Rights Clinic, National Homelessness Law Center, and partners submitted a shadow report on racial injustice in homelessness and housing, highlighting the criminalization of homelessness. To further engage in advocacy with the Committee in Geneva, a factsheet was developed based on the report.
