ANCHORAGE - Today, the Municipality of Anchorage released a portal for residents to report homeless camps in their area. The portal, part of #ANCWorks!, will help the Anchorage Police Department contact campers in a timely manner, and expedite camp clean up.
"We are excited to launch this portal to make cleaning camps more responsive and responsible to community concerns," stated Mayor Berkowitz.
This portal creates an easy way for residents to report a camp and allows the Municipality to collect data, and streamline the process. Coupling this portal with the new 10 person Parks and Recreation team prioritizes homeless camp clean up as well as connects vulnerable members of our community with services.
To report a camp, click on the Anchorage Police Department-Homeless Camp link on #ANCWorks!
