While the site is prepared for rain and snow, residents needed more relief from the extreme cold. They partnered with Wayside Christian Mission to put their residents at Hotel Louisville.
Residents have gained employment, others are participating in recovery programs, and they've reunited with their families and received mental health treatment.
At "The Hope Village" people will be able to live temporarily outdoors with food, showers, toilets, and outreach services such as substance abuse counseling, mental health and housing navigation.
