Emergency Shelter

District residents experiencing homelessness are encouraged to utilize emergency shelters. Shelters are operated by partner organizations under contract with the Department of Human Services. Shelters provide a warm and safe place to stay and offer additional support services and case management. Shelter capacity is expanded during the winter months for residents who are at risk of hypothermia.
