Carroll County's Cold Weather Emergency Shelter Program — administered by the Way Station — *has run out of funding* . If you are aware of people in need of resources, they will now need to contact local towns for emergency financial assistance, since the county funding is expended.
Through the state-funded program, we provided over 1000 bed nights starting in December, due to extreme temperatures. This is comparable to what other areas of the state also experienced. Our funding is depleted.
Sadly, all we can offer at this time, during regular Way Station business hours, will be camping gear and gas cards. We cannot place people in hotels anymore. Contact Dan Lavigne via 603.452.7113 if you camping gear. Since we aren't a 24/7 response system, we will not be out over the weekend, during the snow and extreme temps, providing gear. We have attempted to provide such items in advance to everyone we could reach.
If you have questions about the Cold Weather program, please contact Ann Cady @ 603.452.8428. She will refer you to someone else on the team if she cannot answer the question.
