GUEST MEDIA GUIDELINES 

Picture
Guests and Partners Jenna and Erlene from The Fountain Project at our special community event.
As an organization, SOS aims to create a digital image legacy that dignifies and uplifts all community members including SOS staff, unhoused and housed neighbors, and provider partners. We want a legacy that will make our future leaders with lived experience proud. Our values of dignity, respect, and safety extend to all aspects of digital media in our work: planning, creation, and distribution. As a guest to the SOS Yard or Outreach event, you can join us in our ethical media practices in the following ways:
  1. Take photos of your party only while at the SOS Yard or Outreach Events (note: this does not apply to community events such as fundraisers, parties, etc.)
  2. Make sure that there is no one in the background of your photos who is being photographed unknowingly or could be identified
  3. Only take photos of minors in your party with the consent of their parent or guardian
  4. Never reveal the location of an unhoused person or an encampment (especially on social media)
NEIGHBOR CARE LINE:  510.806.8650
Call the Neighborhood Care Line to reach a member of the SOS Richmond Outreach Team for help engaging collaboratively with our unhoused neighbors.  Leave a message  to express your concerns about a situation you observe or experience.  To help an unhoused individual get services, call CORE - Coordinated Outreach Referral Engagement Program - for the mobile homeless outreach team at 211.
