Shelters see high occupancy as winter strains rise
National St shelter capacity sits around 48 with about 37 housed nightly this week. Female beds run scarce causing a 2 to 1 female over male ratio. SHALOM shelter network reports about two dozen nightly, down from 33, rotating among Christ United Methodist and Spring Hill United Church of Christ through March. Local aid groups warn proposed federal budget cuts worsen emergency assistance, as demand grows and resources shrink.
