Thanksgiving Shelter Draws Homeless to Baytown
About two dozen people including seven children remain at Bay Area Homeless Services shelter in Baytown on Thanksgiving. Executive Director Bill Eckert notes some will visit family or attend a Market Street luncheon, while the shelter serves a Thanksgiving meal with turkey and all the trimmings at day end. The holiday period typically increases shelter demand. Eckert says staying at the shelter offers meals, attention, case management, and contact with others in similar situations.
