Imagine trying to survive a night with just a nylon tent between you and a windchill of -45. Emergency shelter staff are working to keep people from being exposed to the dangerously cold temperatures that are coming. Michelle Malette is the Executive Director of the Out of the Cold Community Association. They say we don’t usually have this kind of skin freezing, deadly weather and there are people scrambling to help. But after this weekend, there will still be winter weather and people who are not adequately housed. Malette is asking for compassion and empathy over the days ahead. They say people will be trying to get into warm spaces that may end up making some people uncomfortable. But before calling police or building security to remove people from a warm lobby or vestibule, consider these people’s situation. Police will only evict them if they’re called. Malette also offers her thoughts on the ongoing crisis and the generosity people are showing to the organizations that are there helping on the front lines.
