Why is it called the 'No Skids Movement'?

The term ‘skids’ originates from Seattle’s logging history. In the 19th century, ‘skid roads’ were used to slide logs down to sawmills. Over time, the term became associated with neighborhoods where poverty and homelessness were prevalent, particularly in areas like Seattle’s Pioneer Square. By reclaiming the term, we’re highlighting the importance of addressing homelessness and promoting dignity through sanitation.

How does a portable bidet help the homeless?

Portable bidets help individuals experiencing homelessness by providing a dignified, hygienic, and affordable means of maintaining personal cleanliness.
