MAAP Vintage and Premium Tag Sale

The Material Aid and Advocacy Program (MAAP) amplifies and organizes with people who are unhoused and people who use drugs, and our allies, for evidence-based solutions to the interconnected systems and policy failures they are surviving. While doing this we support people in meeting their self-identified survival needs through outreach and sweep support, and at our low-threshold drop-in space where people access material aid and meals; have risk reduction conversations and safety plan; connect to resources and providers; build community; care for each other; and organize.
