A Safe Home for Adam & Meech: Urgent Housing & Legal Fund
Donation protected
My friend Adam and his service dog Meech are facing a housing crisis after experiencing severe discrimination. In fact I recently learned they were staying in storage unit with no heat or power with temperatures around 0 degrees. What started as wrongful termination from his hotel job in December 2023 has spiraled into a devastating chain of events:
- Lost his apartment due to missed work and unpaid wages
- Faced ongoing harassment and discrimination at multiple hotels
- Had his belongings stolen when forcibly removed from temporary housing
- Currently being denied accommodation at local hotels due to having Meech
- Unable to secure new employment due to the mental health impact
- Legal help is delayed until February 2025 (EEOC intake)
Adam and Meech are now nearly homeless, sleeping wherever they can safely rest, with only a few bags of clothes to their name. Meech, who is perfectly behaved and essential for Adam's disability, has become a target for discrimination despite federal protections.
We're urgently seeking support to help Adam and Meech secure stable housing and legal representation to fight this injustice. Every donation will help provide:
- Safe temporary housing
- Basic necessities
- Legal fund
- Support during job search
No one should face discrimination for having a service animal. Please help Adam and Meech get back on their feet and fight for their rights.
