USCO is a collective of community activists who are fighting for the rights of the unhoused residents of Kelowna. They are demanding the government cease its militarization of Kelowna's Tent City, allow all people to return for both daytime and nighttime shelter, and transition to a peer-led model where Tent City residents themselves are empowered to govern the site and make decisions that directly impact their community.
