Our friend Jen just reached out in need of shelter for her & her 2 kiddos. I’ll be working with Jen tomorrow on making a pathway to shelter, but tonight we want to make sure she & the kids stay safe. If you’d like to donate to our motel fund, info below! Hugs ❤️ Venmo: azhugs

Just got our friend Josh to detox! This is his 3rd time going to detox for fentanyl. So proud of him ❤️ Josh said that when he’s healthy, he wants to start a community garden in his neighborhood. If you have any gardening tools, seeds, or other garden necessities, DM me. Hugs!

Thank you to @asupublicsvc for inviting me and my friends to talk about homelessness in our community on this panel this morning. We must join together, have these difficult conversations, and fight for our most vulnerable populations together ❤️❤️❤️

The number of families facing housing insecurity in AZ is a crisis. We’re collecting hotel gift cards for families in need while they await shelter, among other items. If you’d like to get involved with AZ Hugs, join us at our Sunday Family Picnic ❤️ https://t.co/8gn0frLmJv

We connected Tif & her 2 little kids to shelter services a while back. At our weekly Sunday Family Picnic for those experiencing homelessness tonight, her family dressed up as the Scooby Doo gang. They brought me a sweater & ascot & asked me to be Fred. So fun! 🎃❤️

I’ve known Rae and her 7 year old son for a long time. We’ve connected them with resources & supported them over the years and they’re safe in a family shelter right now. Rae painted this beautiful piece of art for me! It’s her first painting in 30 years and I’m very honored ❤️

(1/2) I just got a call from a family with 2 infants who have been sleeping in their car. I’m on my way to help this family now. We aim to get them a hotel room until space opens up at an emergency family shelter. These are the items this family has requested. DM to donate!

Took all week, but Marisa & her 5 yr old, fleeing a DV situation, are now moved in to the safe house we found placement for them at! We made the 2 hr drive to the house last night. I’ve become pretty close with this family & I’m so happy they’re ok now ❤️It’s all about the love!

Do you have any of these clothes or toys that you’d like to donate? We are working this morning to make sure Marisa and her 5 year old child get into somewhere safe, and we’d love to make sure her son has some of his favorite toys too! Thank you ❤️ @HugsAz

During our heat relief efforts today, my friend Mike had a seizure & heat stroke. It was very scary. This is truly a crisis & it’s VITAL that we take emergency action for our community! People are dying in our state EVERY DAY from this heat. Share water. Check on folks. Plz ❤️

I joined @BillyHarfosh in the @iHeartRadio studio to talk on @999KEZ about homelessness in AZ, mental health, my poetry, and how the key to progression is togetherness and actively working to take care of each other. Check out our conversation below ❤️ https://t.co/XpaThtHPN9
