Due to the anticipated freezing temperatures, the Severe Weather Shelter will be open tonight Wednesday, February 13. The shelter is operated by Catholic Community Services staff and volunteers from Kent Lutheran Church.

Priority will be given to homeless families with children who are living on the streets or in vehicles, but the shelter will also be available for single women and men. Doors for the Severe Weather Shelter will open at 9 p.m. each evening. Clients must register at the door. As with all shelters, rules for the health and safety of all clients and staff and the broader community will apply.
