Safe Space Chico has extended Winter Shelter hours to keep our guests warm during this stormy weather- did y’all see that snow? ❄️ 🥶 Until February 28th guests will have the option to hang out at First Christian Church until noon!

We are asking our community to donate individually packaged, prepared items such as cup of noodles, frozen burritos, hot chocolate packets, oatmeal cups, soft granola bars, etc.

Drop off donations to 1909 Esplanade, Tuesday and Thursday between 10am-1pm. Order online and have them delivered directly to our office. Or drop off at the church between 6-8pm any day of the week. Reach out to info@safespacechico.org for any questions.

Thank you to the congregation of First Christian Church for hosting- this is what community looks like! 🤝

Sunday 2/8/26
10 am: I'm in Church! I sang the songs; I heard the words; I was impressed; I was OK w/all of it; Buddhist that I am. The last word I heard [last Sunday] was “See you at our BOD meeting March 12.” After this Service, 2/8/26, I was in the entryway w/ 6 church members … and the next thing you know ….they're having a church BOD meeting now; I'm invited to say a few words and NSST is first on the Agenda! I said a few words... reviewing highlights of our SSC Proposal and the SSC Table of Contents and our experience w/ the city. They smiled. Then said, they had crazy trouble w/the city on their sewer hook-up a few days ago. They seemed to say they were down for doing our SSC “By Right.” !! I may become a member of this church!

1 pm: Amy and Doug come by and we emptied out the back of our NSST van and cut out the moldy rug. We hope to put it together Wednesday afternoon.

10 am Monday, 2/9/26 Met our mechanic, Carl out in front. He worked on making the latch on the back door of the van work better. It has been very difficult to open the back door lately.
He took our van to the shop of a friend and adjusted the brakes. The peddle was getting a little too soft for comfort. Now we are good.
Charles worked on cutting the rubber matte replacement for the moldy rug to fit just right.
5:00 pm And ended the working day putting together 12 mini first-aid kits to distribute at Mutual Aid Tuesday.

Mini First Aid Kits include band-aids, cough drops, alcohol wipes, antibiotic ointment, 6 ibprophen pills,
and a paper towel

When is the last time you looked at our Plaza?
In the middle of the top photo is an old guy in a wheelchair! What kind of a wealthy community is it that leaves their handicapped elderly to languish outside in winter?

Something is wrong here. Write Mayor Kasey Reynolds to instruct Staff to use State Statute 8698 to get going on the NSST tiny home proposal: P.O. Box 3420 Chico, CA 95927

Friday 2/6/26, NSST took their award winning Mobile Showers program to E. Eaton Rd. across the street from the City Alt-Site and provide showers for our neighbors who are living w/o a bathroom (or a refrigerator). What kind of a wealthy society leaves so many of their members unsheltered?
