"141 people are on the waitlist …
People who are medically fragile or disabled will receive priority placement."

@ahimsa_pdx I have little trust in grants pass but I hope that they do right with this. MINT being involved also gives me some hope.

(Vs like, barely meet standards & use it as a permission slip to harass & penalize folks more which is how they got here in the first place)
