About the Program

Extreme Weather Shelter (EWS) is an as-needed services coordination program designed for individuals that have no access to adequate shelter during nights when severe weather is forecast. Severe weather may be temperatures falling below 32°F, when there is sustained gale force or higher winds expected or the wind chill factor is predicted to fall to 32°F or lower, or when torrential rains are expected. The service is a partnership between North Coast Resource Center (NCRC) and the Humboldt All Faith Partnership (HAFP), and participant local churches. This service prevents overuse of medical facilities for the attendant health and/or safety problems that may be caused by exposure to extreme weather for any duration of time, such as over night.

Fees
There are no fees charged for any aspect of this service.
