Overnight Stays in the Emergency Warming Center
Sheltering the Unhoused
On November 1, our region’s only emergency shelter was forced to close due to staffing shortages, reflecting how integrated the issues of workforce, housing, and families are in our region. Our community worked together to respond as swiftly as possible by opening a new location at Truckee’s Joseph Center by the end of December. Safeguarding the well-being of our neighbors during harsh winter weather and life-threatening situations is vital to who we are as a community. Learn more details about the center.
