And as a reminder - Warming Centers are for ANYONE who needs a warm place to be. If you are experiencing homelessness, or if you just need a warm place for any reason, come see us. We are going to ask you your name (we want to call you something), and if there is anything we can help you with besides a warm place to be.
Secondly, people are allowed to come and go at the warming center. People do not need to be there when it opens, and it is not mandatory that someone stays all night.
Everyone involved with the planning, implementation, services, and funding of the warming centers just want everyone to remain safe.
