only 22 out of 111 had somewhere to go?!.
We are yet in another heatwave, and the question remains: what is the City doing to support people who are unhoused? . June 22 in the last heat wave,we saw 111 people during 3-hour of outreach. Out of the 111 individuals, only 22 people had access to a shelter bed or a tent. 1/.
