In 2020, Power was knocked out for 6 days, Transit frozen in its tracks, resources limited as businesses struggled to open and operate. In 2021, with homeless rising due to Covid more people have been outplaced onto the streets to freeze this year as well.
People without power were devastated and it was hard. Imagine, though, if you didn’t even have a roof over your head? Then what? Many Homeless people were stranded and braved the cold as they couldn’t make it to any emergency shelter. Sadly, Deaths were reported when makeshift fires to stay warm burned down some encampments. Some didn’t have information about community resources in order to stay warm. I believe it’s very important to know options as we’ve seen Rose City has unpredictable weather. Nobody should be left out in the cold.
