Warming Center Public Comment from Justina LichtenbargerThe Warming Center is in trouble and needs your help! There is an organized effort to get their permit revoked, and you can see the results in the Daily Interlake article about Mondays
Kalispell City Council meeting. Please write a letter of support for the Warming Center to the Kalispell city council, send your email to publiccomment@kalispell.com...... . . .
I received this via a therapy forum I follow online.
I just wanted to say I " support" the Warming Center staying open as long as possible... And in fact, Kalispell is in HIGH need of low income housing, more warming centers, and homeless
assistance altogether.
If you shut this down several people will inevitably die in the winter.... It's not fair to them.
Yes many need mental health or addiction services or both... But leaving them in the cold to die is not going to solve this.
I don't know when this is decided but PLEASE RECONSIDER if you are thinking about closing it.
These people need a fighting chance.. let them have one. They each have their own story, and are human beings. They need help to get on their feet, and that place can assist in it.
We also are in HIGH need of a detox center. But that is another topic as well.
Thanks for your time and consideration.
