2 more NYC major networks cover Tent City

Two more major networks have carried a story about Tent City. NBC carried their story yesterday. The link is: http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/NJ-Tent-City-Harbors-Broke-Jobless-127559718.html

The NBC story says 15 structures will be taken down. This is part of the consent agreement with Lakewood, I am told by Jeff Wild.

CBS carried the story this evening (and may be on the late night news.) The link to that is http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2011/08/12/sign-of-the-tough-times-tent-city-pops-up-in-ocean-county-new-jersey/

It is important that people are reminded how important addressing the issue of homelessness is. Attend the county freeholders meetings. Attend the case status meeting in September. Tell people you know and who are concerned.
