Nov 29-Dec 2, 2022 Inclement Weather Meetings-Pierce County

An inclement weather group has been formed by a member of the Lived Experiences Coalition in partnership with many others in our community, such as many Pierce County employees trying to create sustainable solutions for our residents living unsheltered especially during this time of inclement weather.

Many may already be aware of these efforts. For those interested, please consider attending one of these scheduled meetings via zoom from 9-9:30 am the remainder of this week to learn what's needed and what's being done to meet the needs of our vulnerable neighbors. I'm including the invite in case you were unaware of these events and to continue to ask for prayer:

There are many in our community banding together to care for the most needy within our community and this is another attempt to organize efforts and materials to provide shelter and care for these persons experiencing homelessness, especially those without shelter. 

Keep in mind, there has been up to three times the need for shelter than we have available:
