Coordinated Street Outreach

Outreach teams are responding to requests as quickly as possible. If you or someone you see needs urgent assistance, please call 911.

During extreme weather events, Outreach Teams from several agencies work together to ensure that people living unsheltered (on the streets) are informed about and protected from upcoming winter weather. They bring them gear and offer rides to warming stations and shelters.
If you need assistance or support, please contact 211.
If you see someone in immediate danger, please call 911.
