Summary
The No Homeless Detention Centers Act prohibits recipients of federal Housing and Urban Development funds from compelling homeless persons to reside in designated facilities, requiring them to work while sheltering, or threatening punishment for engaging in life-sustaining activities on public property. The bill defines life-sustaining activities as necessary actions to maintain basic health and safety, including sleeping, eating, and protecting oneself from the elements on public property. It also prohibits HUD-funded entities from assisting law enforcement or contractors in threatening or punishing homeless persons for such activities.
