Coalition for Equality - regarding needs of those remained out of the anti-crisis plan
Tbilisi. The Coalition for Equality releases a statement in regard to needs of those remained out of the anti-crisis plan.
“Despite consultations with community organizations, neither the needs of LGBTQI people have been considered in the anti-crisis plan. In the given circumstance, queer people, remained without income and job, who fail to have a support of their family members or a public solidarity, are threatened with staying out on the street. Their urgent needs, including subsidy for rent and provision of alternative housing or shelter, have been left beyond the state anti-crisis assistance program. In the process of overcoming the crisis, response of the Interagency Coordinating Council to demands of community organizations is fragmentary and does not respond proactively to those complex challenges that are in the agenda”.
