In times of horrible weather, it is important to be grateful for the homes we are sheltered with. There are a large number of homeless people who are not provided with the shelter and protection that they need in order to survive. Where do the homeless go when the weather becomes too much to handle? Is anyone there to support the homeless throughout these times? In many cities across the country, there are homeless people who receive no help and are left to find their own refuge. Often, in poor weather conditions, you may see groups of homeless people gather together to help one another out.
Thankfully, in the city of Portland/ Multnomah County, there have been numerous locations that have offered weather shelter and warming spaces to the homeless in time of need. Places like the Oregon Convention Center, the Metro Garage, and the Arbor Severe Weather Shelter offer spaces for the homeless.
