Public Homeless Shelter Option for Lane County

We the Concerned Citizens of Lane County request a public homeless shelter for our community.

Why is this important?

Given the long term nature of the homelessness crisis in Lane County, we need government to commit resources for emergency shelter needs.

It is neither efficient, logical or ethical to expect community volunteers acting in an emergency situation to meet the urgent, sustained needs without a public homeless shelter option.
