Mission staged to provide emergency overflow during cold weather at Hotel Louisville

Wayside Christian Mission has just agreed with the City of Louisville to provide emergency overflow housing for families and singles at Hotel Louisville should the shelter beds (including Operation White Flag mats) become full during this threatening cold icy weather we are experiencing tonight and tomorrow.

Should this go into effect, Wayside will transfer existing family and single clients to the hotel and allow families and singles from the camps and off the street to utilize shelter rooms. This winter is a little more difficult as most shelters have halted their Operation White Flag participation. Once again, having Hotel Louisville as a backup in our community for homeless people and for COVID-positive people is a blessing.
