The Hosmer shelter may not have reached its target goal to get people housed, but owners say they're moving forward with plans to help the community.

As the American Rescue Plan Act expires, the resulting budget gap equals more than 300 emergency beds for those experiencing homelessness.

In that time, some outreach providers and advocates are saying unhoused people are harder to find and less trusting of outreach personnel.

A safe parking site recently opened at Holy Rosary Catholic Church. The shelter offers spots for 20 vehicles, helping as many as 40 people with hygiene services available in one of the church campus buildings.
