The Oakland residents staved off their eviction in court twice but eventually lost their bid to stay this month. Their lawsuit alleging that the city is violating their rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act is still pending. Only three of the residents were still considering a city offer for shelter, Henson said, adding that the rest of the dozen individuals were not offered adequate accommodations. Henson pointed to a family with three teenage children who were told to move to Richmond. And then the other mom takes the children to school each day in San Francisco.
