Thanks to some large deliveries of food this past week, we are pretty well stocked for the moment. But our stocks of food don't last all that long, so watch this spot for next week's needs.
We are looking for volunteers who would be willing to spend a night, paired with a shelter staff person, ensuring that those residing in the shelter are safe and secure throughout a long and cold winter night. If interested, please let us know at: [email protected]

After considerable thought, we have decided to suspend emergency cold-weather shelter operations effective tonight, November 5th. We will reopen next Thursday, November 12. Warm weather, minimal attendance and lack of trained staff contributed to this decision.
JCCM is hiring part time assistant managers to operate the Emergency Cold-Weather Shelter from November through March. Work will begin immediately and continue through the first week in April for end of season activities. To apply, follow this link:
