Our Eviction Notice (Simple Format)

Eviction Notice

You have 7 days to vacate the premises or you will be subject to police arrest!

(Please take all of your belongings and move, even if you have nowhere to go. Good luck and be careful - it’s really cold and wet outside.)



Imagine for a moment that one day you received a notice just like this stating that you had but 7 days to pick up your belongings and leave your home. Take a moment to think about that. Seriously, think about it. How would you react? What would you do? Where would you go? How would you move your things? Who would you ask for help? Would you survive?

Now imagine receiving this notice when you are ALREADY homeless. All the shelters are full and you have no one you can turn to. Now, what do you do?


This is the impending plight of some of our homeless citizens of Vallejo.


An eviction notice was distributed to homeless residents of the White Slough area in the marshlands off of Sonoma Blvd. on Thursday, February 26. They have until Friday, March 6 to leave. Granted, they are trespassing, but they have been there for years and they have nowhere else to go. The city has not made alternative accommodations and there has been no mention of any plans for aid or support.


If you think this is wrong, please speak up and be heard.

You’re fellow Vallejo citizens need your help NOW.
