Scott Mc Kiernan Presents zReportage.com Issue #954 Story of the Week: Published TUESDAY September 17, 2024: ‘No Way Out’: Pulitzer winner ZUMA Press photographer Renee C. Byer staff at The Sacramento Bee, tackles this long term important story: Sacramento’s Camp Resolution hoped to be a national model. The first-of-its-kind lease allowed unhoused residents to live on city owned land, many lauded what they hoped would become a national model. Dubbed ‘Camp Resolution’ the self-governing community of about 50 was a safe haven that would not close until every resident had been permanently housed. But in August, after roughly 17 months the city moved to terminate the lease. Police cleared the camp and evicted residents, many of whom are older than 55 and living with disabilities. They now face the same conditions they fought for years to avoid. Welcome to ‘No Way Out’
