A smoke respite center is open today from 7pm-7am at Trinity Methodist Church in Eugene. LTD is offering free shuttle service there.
A helpful and important resource has been made available by @LaneCoPH, St. Vincent de Paul Society of Lane County, @EganWarming, and other community partners for those in need of overnight shelter from the poor air quality due to the wildfire smoke in our area.
