Amazing work from @WheelerReporter here showing the real human impact shelter has for the people who need it. At 75, Sharon Lewis was sleeping on a park bench at night until she was brought to the new Open Doors shelter in Woonsocket.

[Wheeler Cowperthwaite @WheelerReporter]

A new homeless shelter is open in Woonsocket. I talked to a woman who was moved into the shelter from the park and the man who brought her there, also living at the shelter.
