Hope is on the way
Inn from the Cold reports consistent number of bed stays to 2015
A haven of hope – that's how many guests at Inn from the Cold describe Alberta's only barrier-free shelter exclusively for families, which continues to see capacity-like numbers leading into one of its busiest times of the year.
"One of the things we're doing here is restoring dignity," said director of donor relations Janeen Webb.
In the face of Alberta's ongoing economic downturn, Inn from the Cold has reported about 30,000 bed stays so far in 2016. Webb said that's consistent with 2015 when the organization saw almost 40,000 stays by year's end.
