The shelter will get work done over the summer to bring the old school building “up to code,” but also to allow the organization to solidify partnerships with others in the community to increase services.
“We will re-open in the fall with not just a shelter, but programs in place to help those who come through our doors sort through the layers of rebuilding their lives,” according to the shelter’s most recent newsletter.
Bridges of Hope opened days before Christmas and reports more than 80 people stayed at the shelter during the cold months.
