Constitutional Challenges in Homelessness Law

This chapter explores the intersection of U.S. constitutional law and homelessness through significant Supreme Court cases, particularly focusing on anti-camping laws.

The conversation delves into local government responsibilities and the legal complexities surrounding issues of status versus action in the criminalization of homelessness.
