As tough as the homelessness problem in our city and region is, you have to feel for those without shelter during times like these. With a wind chill of zero chances are multiple people will die on the streets this week, so try to keep your hearts open next time you see an encampment somewhere.

But how else are those that bolster their own self value by looking down on others going to make themselves feel good? Have you taken that into account?

In all seriousness though, houselessness is tough enough on its own. These conditions are awful with the weather and people will die. Thanks for this post and spreading compassion.

There are some great shelter options and transportation to said options as well. Most places take animals too!

Glad you're acknowledging this...with record low temperatures and winter storms running wild all across the country, we've got to do our part and take notice and act now more than ever.

Yeah thinking about this always makes me sad. I feel so helpless. I try to buy blankets and food but I know there only so much I can do for one or two people.

I feel bad for those out in this, especially knowing it’s mostly choice as the vast majority of the homeless know about warming shelters

Yeah it's been really sad to see and not entirely sure what could be done to alleviate this. Feel like we're seeing the problem escalate before our eyes but there's been 0 viable solutions in place!
