Los Angeles Homeless Woman Being Evicted from Her Tent with Nowhere to Go

Here is Jennifer's PayPal if you'd like to help www.paypal.me/...
Jennifer lives in a tent in the San Fernando Valley, an urbanized area of Los Angeles County. She is one of many homeless people being displaced with no place to go on a daily basis in Los Angeles and other communities criminalizing homelessness.
Jennifer shatters all the stereotypes surrounding homelessness. She is sober and does not use drugs. Jennifer is a single mom. She worked two jobs. Jennifer lost both jobs within three months while rent kept going up and up.
Jennifer tries to stay positive. She says every day is good. If the weather is too hot, Jennifer sleeps during the day and then works around her camp at night. She says it's important to keep her area clean just like you would an apartment. It's just a lot harder with you're homeless, and everything is dirt. Many homeless people stay up at night for safety reasons too.
Jennifer is politically active working to get other homeless people to vote. With close to 60,000 homeless people in Los Angeles County, collectively that's a very powerful voice. Because homeless people are focused on daily survival, voting or being politically active takes a back seat. To be honest, many homeless people feel powerless. Even service providers rarely listen to homeless people so many homeless feel what's the point of voting.
This is where you can help. Invisible People wrote a post about helping to register homeless people to vote here invisiblepeopl... and equally important, we need you to speak up for homeless people by contacting your state and federal legislators demanding they work to end homelessness in your community invisiblepeopl...
This is the eviction notice posted around the Sepulveda Basin area where Jennifer and several hundred homeless people live. They have nowhere else to go. This criminalization of homelessness and displacement of homeless people is not just cruel, it does nothing to help end homelessness and is a waste of taxpayer money • Post .

About Invisible People
There is a direct correlation between what the general public perceives about homelessness and how it affects policy change. Most people blame homelessness on the person experiencing it instead of the increasing shortage of affordable housing, lack of employment, a living wage or the countless reasons that put a person at risk. This lack of understanding creates a dangerous cycle of misperception that leads to the inability to effectively address the root causes of homelessness.
We imagine a world where everyone has a place to call home. Each day, we work to fight homelessness by giving it a face while educating individuals about the systemic issues that contribute to its existence. Through storytelling, education, news, and activism, we are changing the narrative on homelessness.
This isn’t just talk. Each year, our groundbreaking educational content reaches more than a billion people across the globe. Our real and unfiltered stories of homelessness shatter stereotypes, demand attention and deliver a call-to-action that is being answered by governments, major brands, nonprofit organizations, and everyday citizens just like you.
However, there is more work to be done on the road ahead. Homelessness is undoubtedly one of our biggest societal issues today and will only continue to grow if we don’t take action now.
Invisible People is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to educating the public about homelessness through innovative storytelling, news, and advocacy. Since our launch in 2008, Invisible People has become a pioneer and trusted resource for inspiring action and raising awareness in support of advocacy, policy change and thoughtful dialogue around poverty in North America and the United Kingdom.

Invisible People it’s a war of super rich vs poor. Disabled people or low income are flat out denied housing because their income isn’t 3x the monthly rent. Since the recession the scam was kicked into overdrive. Land was bought up, apartments repainted and rent was tripled, these crooked landlords even take to harassing tenants out,then raise the rent on the next.

[@rickuyeda4818]

I don't see greed of lack of compassion as a cause. I see lack of pre-planning. I was an Art Director for a printing plate company for 10 years. However, at 31, I realized at I couldn't retire on Social Security so I made a career change to a job with a pension and health care. I joined Law Enforcement and bought a house. I worked all the overtime I could get so I could pay off my house before retirement. Now I've been retired for the past 12 years with a house that has long been paid off. My pension covers all my expenses and my SS goes into the Bank.

[@timelessmusicfamilymusic9175]

I would be homeless, too. But, lucky for me I bought a condo back in 1984, my rent from my last apartment was the same amount as my condo mortgage $450 back then. However, it was a fix loan, which means that $450 will not increase for the next 30 years.. Now, I'm getting cards & letters from investors to buy my unit since it's been paid off 10 years ago(paid it off early). I can't & won't sell, cause I can't afford to pay rent in today's market.

Being homeless is something no one ever thinks will happen to them but when it did happen to me I was one of the lucky ones that it was for only 9 months but being homeless is not a crime the reason I became homeless was I left a very toxic relationship and had I not left I would most likely have died sure I could have gone to my local shelter or the police but out of fear I just felt it was best to just leave and only keep in contact with 2 family members so they knew my whereabouts and when I felt safe I moved back to my home town people being homeless is heartbreaking to say the least we all have our own story as to why we ended up on the streets but we are all still humans and deserve to be treated as so it’s been years now and I’m doing good I have rebuilt my life and am married but I now choose to live in a RV full time and we could not be happier with our choice of downsizing from a 2 bedroom to a 34 ft RV my thought and prayers to each and everyone living on the streets may god place his hand on you and protect you and your family each and every day

Our church Living Praise Christian Center use to go out to help Jennifer and others in the Sepulveda Basin until they were cleared out. She is a gentle kind person who appreciates the help and has tried herself to help out others in that unfortunate situation. I pray that we were a blessing to her and the others that live there.

THIS IS SMART HOMELESS YOU NEED HELP FROM OUR CITY OF ANGELS GOD BLESS YOU

[@malkaringel7864]

Many similarities in all these stories. It is simply sad to realize what a daily struggle being homeless entails. Just to survive. I am grateful for the roof over my head and a bed to sleep in. Also running hot water and some heat. Hope this lady can get off the streets. I pay 60% of my income on housing. So, many landlords expect too much and there is no ceiling on what they can ask. Nonsense! Children being afraid of homeless people? That's the parents expecting the worse. Kids do have their own judgement!!! And some are wiser beyond their years or smarter than their parents!!!! I wish this lady well. I pray she can get off the streets, as it must be a nightmare!!! We are all human. What is wrong with people today? Everyone is on their device and look down upon others who have less. Mazel tov! Well said.

[@TraciHilbers]

Some parents,especially the rich ones,teach their kids to be judgemental and to be afraid of people who are not like them,just plain sad that parents can teach their own children how to act like that...i am a single mom raising 2 teen daughter's...my 16 yr old loves to shop at goodwill and hates to spend money,she does not think buying a pair of jeans for even $15 is worth it and would rather by a pair for $5...she knows lots of money,nice fancy house and nice looking car does not buy happiness...i hope this nice lady finds a place to call home soon

[@donnaleeclubb119]

Don't be dense. Kids need to be aware of everyone, including the homeless, not because of the homeless. The homeless certainly are not exempt of being cautious of just ad much as any other stranger that they meet on the street whether they live in a home or not.

@@TraciHilbers I think you are being proactive by teaching your young people to see the value of the dollar! It will be well applied in her own life. I think it's a wonderful gift.

[@elinope4745]

The laws make that type of thing dangerous. You bring her in then suddenly if she decides to stay longer than welcome, you can't remove her. If she stays for a couple of years you are now her legal spouse and she can divorce you and take your stuff, potentially even get alimony. Maybe she is a good person that wouldn't do that, but do you really know her all that well? Moral of the story is that the laws need to change.

[@donnaleeclubb119]

@@elinope4745 That only applies if you are in a common law state, which California is not. And if you are in a common law state, the only way that you can claim common law status is if you are together a set number of years (7 or 10, I think) and if you actually are considered the wife, like you are introduced as the wife or mail comes to your house as the wife, if you send out mail, say Christmas cards as "Our Family, The Smith's or The Smith-Johnsons, something like that, where it was conceivable that most people thought you were married.

This is a mess I have been homeless and a land lord too. I lived in a van for 10 years. I have also been screwed around by tenants. I was a rich homeless man and a poor landlord. The rich are empty souls trying to fill the bottomless pit of greed. Our economy can be extremely cruel. We all are Americans it's a brotherhood and brothers look out for and respect eachother.

[@keepitsimple4629]

A few years ago there was a man without legs who would sit at the entrance of the grocery store in his wheelchair. I found out some customers had complained about him, and insisted he go. I went to the manager and gave him an earful. I said Jimmy wasn't harming anybody. I asked 'how would you like it if your only entertainment was sitting on the corner of the intersection watching traffic go by?' He of course had no answer. I said if customers don't like seeing him in his wheelchair, they can always go in and out of the other entrance. Some people have zero empathy and compassion. I wouldn't want to be them.

I was surprised when she said she was Jewish, because she doesn't have the typical Jewish appearance (not that there's really such a thing). There are plenty of Jewish charities/synagogues out there who should be able to help her out. Jews usually help each other out more than other religions.

Columbus, Ohio no longer has affordable 1 bedroom, 1 bath apartments for under $450/Month! Many Ohioans are very educated but stuck in perpetual poverty due to businesses being greedy and not paying livable wages! Most jobs are temporary, very low paying, no growth, and getting more boring/stressful/robotic and meaningless to society!

[@Babu-kr3cr]

I heard Columbus was one of the most afforable cities to rent in the country. The rent you state is extremely low. I think that was like 1980's rent. Now it is going to be maybe double that.

[@Babu-kr3cr]

@MSSUCCESSDRIVEN Average rent where I am is around $1,200 for a one bedroom if you are just starting a lease. I don't know how they jumped it so high in one year. I think we have a cap how much they can raise the rent in a year, maybe 5%. The rents are just driving up really fast almost everywhere. You are still way lower for a metropolitan area.

I have a paypal acct and when I was homeless and living in my car for awhile I didnt receive any donations from anyone except for the person who offered to give me some money to help that was in another state, which was why I opened the acct - so I could receive the funds. That person gave the most while they were able and one other person donated a cpl times - and a cpl months ago I rcvd a donation from a prayer that helped those in the Bahamas through the hurricane who were protected while every one around them suffered devastation - in which I thank Father for all who ever has donated - point being - even though you have a paypal - not many ppl donate.

@@bobsaget7832 whom are you asking the question to? I have donated to ppl through paypal whom were in need - but only when Ive had money in my paypal from a donation myself. I have been unable to donate to anyone bc Ive recently become unemployed and facing homelessness myself bc Ive not been able to find employment. I believe the persons initial comment was referring to churches and other organizations that say they are there to help ppl in need - but do little to nothing for them with their donated overflow - as you can see as far as some churches are concerned they are buying mansion and cars and jets instead of helping those in need. In which I completely agree with the persons comment - this should not be, when Father has given you overflow of that amout - those things are material and unnecessary when others in need should be blessed with it.
