/ Standing at the entry to the woods where she's been checking on her houseless friends, Shay Jefferson believes Belton, her hometown, won't approve a permanent shelter. Advocates in Belton concerned about their neighbors, who live in camps surrounding the city, are frustrated officials have not built a permanent shelter. Soon after one of our subzero winter nights, there was a post on a Belton, Missouri Community Facebook Group with an image of a man huddled under a blanket in the corner of a storefront on Belton’s Main Street. Trisha Moore posted the image originally on her personal page. She’s a volunteer with the grass-roots group Free Hot Soup, which delivers food and other supplies to those living without houses in and around Belton. Next to her name she attached a sad emoji with the words “feeling heartbroken.”
