have rallied around the cause, drawing attention to the plight of the roughly 100 people who were staying at the shelter when closure was announced. Mayor, who learned about the Salvation Army’s plans to close the shelter a few weeks before the announcement was made public, has also been a driving force in pressuring the organization, both publicly and behind the scenes, to delay closure.
It is unclear how that money has been spent – on building repairs, direct client assistance, or other costs – because Reckline did not provide that information at the committee meeting and did not respond to an email we sent asking for more information.
Most troubling, though, are the 35 people who exited to an “other destination” which can mean the guest either died or they departed for an unknown destination – what service providers sometimes call “exiting to the street.” In other words, 35 people departed the shelter in a way that likely did not result in stable housing.
