Several members of our community experience homelessness and exposure to extreme temperatures.  Help us provide a safe and warm environment for them.

THE WARMING STATION HAS CLOSED FOR THE SEASON

Our MISSION

We will provide people experiencing homelessness in our community with warm and safe overnight accommodations within a quiet and welcoming atmosphere from November 15 through February 28 when the potential for hypothermia is elevated.  We will provide homeless individuals limited day time shelter within our resource and personnel capabilities, especially at times when weather is extreme.  We will furnish individuals experiencing homelessness and other individuals in need with basic sustenance hygiene supplies in coordination with other local charitable organizations.  We will support our community members experiencing homelessness in their efforts to end their homelessness.
