Oakland City Councilman Abel Guillen said on Sept. 10 that on Sept. 11 he will move into a tiny home for two days to underscore the homelessness crisis for local students.

Guillen, who will move into one of two tiny homes in the parking lot of the West Side Missionary Baptist Church at 732 Willow St. at 2 p.m. on Sept. 11, said he previously secured an $80,000 city grant to fund “Pocket Houses,” the tiny home program for Laney College of Oakland.
