The Salvation Army of Central Oklahoma will be offering winter shelter for women, including women with children, as the state braces for winter storms.
The shelter for women and women with children will be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, leaders of the faith-based nonprofit said Saturday.
Women are advised to enter the shelter using the southwest residential services entrance at the Salvation Army complex at 1001 N Pennsylvania Ave.
"The Salvation Army is ready to take in this vulnerable population as we expect deadly temperatures in the coming days," Maj. Stephen Ellis, area commander, said in a news release.
