In this episode, Barry Feaker and La Manda Cunningham along with Christian Stringfellow, Deputy Director of Shelter Services, and Marcus Molinar, Deputy Director of Facilities & Security, explore the critical role of warming centers in our community.

What exactly is a warming center, and why are they essential? How do we decide when and where to open them? We discuss the challenges of operating these spaces, the difference between low-barrier and no-barrier shelters, and the life-changing impact these centers have on those who walk through their doors.

Our guests share the struggles of balancing team needs while ensuring these centers function effectively. We highlight the importance of a strong continuum of care, the invaluable support from community partners, and the need for increased involvement from governmental leadership who have the power to make both negative and positive decisions that impact those we serve.

Join us for a deep dive into the realities of warming centers and the fight to make sure everyone has access to the right resources at the right time.
