Organizers hope that by offering a hot shower, they can connect the unhoused with additional resources like temporary housing.
Joey Rubio knows firsthand what it's like to live on the streets and struggle to find a place just to shower.
"It's hard. I know a few people that got a few memberships to the gym to shower, but even they're looked down upon," Rubio said."It's sad. They think that they're lepers or something, they don't want to be around them. Everybody wants to help [the homeless] but nobody wants them around in the community. We have a problem here, we need to address it. It takes a village to help these people.
