Senator Jackson is being honored for her incredible efforts to fight against the criminalization of homelessness. In 2024, Senator Jackson partnered with the Southern Poverty Law Center to introduce a bill to begin implementing these recommendations, including legislation to create a permanent Interagency Council on Homelessness, including membership of unhoused Georgians. Thank you, Senator Jackson, for all your work and for sharing your inspiring words at this year's Forum.

"The work we are doing to build a future where no one is left behind, where no one is punished for their poverty, and where housing is a reality for all—not just a privilege for some, is more important than ever."![]()

At last week's Human Right to Housing Awards, we honored Congressmember Maxwell Frost (FL-D) with the Bruce E. Vento award, which recognizes individuals and institutions with proven leadership in the fight to end homelessness and poverty. ![]()

Congressmember Frost has been a fierce advocate for unhoused Americans and compassionately shared how his struggle with homelessness and housing insecurity has influenced his work. Frosts’ support was critical in expanding the movement to end homelessness when the Supreme Court took up Johnson v. Grants Pass. He also works tirelessly on behalf of renters’ rights, disaster preparedness, and in so many other areas of human and civil rights.
