For Community Shelter Services, keeping clients safe, warm, housed, and fed each night while mitigating the spread of COVID has been especially challenging. CSS remained steadfast in our commitment to keeping those in our care and the community at large healthy.

Efforts to provide additional safe and clean space for those sheltering from cold temperatures and harsh winter weather are of top concern. To accomplish this, our staff has a plan in action:

• Donations of warm winter clothing were coordinated as early as August.
• Our Emergency Shelter will continue to provide 4 meals a day and keep water, coffee, tea, and hot chocolate on hand at all times for those coming in from the cold. 
• When our typical capacity is reached this winter, overflow cots will be set up to prepare for additional intake. 
• We continue to observe heightened cleanliness procedures to discourage the spread of infectious diseases

Help us continue to serve those who need our help. Please donate today. Thank You.
