Parksville Backs Winter Shelter for Homeless
Description
Parksville, B.C. to establish a temporary winter shelter, offering ten beds from October to April, aiming to be a dry shelter. The proposal comes from Shayla Day, who heads up the Oceanside Homelessness Taskforce, highlighting the need for such a shelter due to the lack of year-round emergency homeless shelters in the area. Councilmember Amit Gaur and Mayor Doug OBrien support the initiative, with the citys letter of support expected to unlock more options for potential locations. The shelter aims to address the critical need for safe, temporary housing during the colder months for those experiencing homelessness in the Oceanside area.
