Indiana Governor Mike Braun today ceremonially signed SEA 285, legislation establishing a statewide prohibition on unauthorized camping on public land while connecting homeless Hoosiers to shelter, diversion, and mental health services.<\/p>\n

News release from Indiana Governor Mike Braun’s office:<\/p>\n

Gov. Mike Braun Takes Action to Ban Street Camping, Connect Homeless Hoosiers to Help<\/strong><\/p>\n

Indianapolis, Indiana (April 21, 2026) \u2013 Governor Mike Braun today ceremonially signed SEA 285<\/a>, legislation establishing a statewide prohibition on unauthorized camping on public land while connecting homeless Hoosiers to shelter, diversion, and mental health services.<\/p>\n

\u201cHoosiers deserve safe streets, sidewalks, and public areas in our cities, and homeless individuals deserve a clear path to shelter, treatment, and mental health services. SEA 285 helps communities take immediate action to make streets safer and address the underlying problem in a meaningful way.\u201d \u2014 Governor Mike Braun<\/p>\n

The law prohibits unauthorized camping, sleeping, or long-term shelter on land owned by the state or a political subdivision. Before criminal enforcement moves forward, law enforcement must first determine whether emergency mental health detention is appropriate and, if not, provide a warning and information about available shelter and services.<\/p>\n

The purpose of the bill is not criminal action, but moving homeless Hoosiers toward social service networks to help them get needed services and stay safe.<\/p>\n

Before Governor Braun\u2019s leadership with SEA 285, Indiana\u2019s approach to the issue of homelessness had focused on housing-first legislation that has demonstrably not reduced homelessness.<\/p>\n

Under SEA 285, a person may be charged only if at least 48 hours have passed since the warning and the person remains within 300 feet of the warned location. The law provides diversion options and provides defenses when no shelter or treatment bed is available within five miles or when a person has been recently released following an involuntary mental health commitment.<\/p>\n

SEA 285 strengthens accountability by preventing local policies that discourage enforcement of public-camping and sidewalk-obstruction rules. The law requires annual reporting from local law enforcement and from recipients of Continuum of Care funding so the state can better measure efforts to reduce unsheltered homelessness.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
