Homeless activists in Portland have reported an alarming trend in the last week: homeless women being raped while sleeping alone on the street. KBOO’s Jenka Soderberg spoke with Laura, who is herself homeless, and has helped organize a campaign called ‘Right to Survive’.  You can email the group at r2spdx@gmail.com .
