Here's A List Of Warming Centers Open Across The City Of Detroit
(CBS DETROIT) - The city of Detroit is reminding residents that there are warming centers and respite locations available to provide relief from extreme weather conditions.
In collaboration with two nonprofits, the city is offering four warming centers that will be open from now until March 31.
In a news release, city officials said Cass Community Social Services and Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries will provide temporary relief to persons who are homeless when year-round shelters may be at capacity.
Individuals seeking placement at a warming center should call the Coordinated Assessment Model (CAM) to discuss options. Contact CAM at (313) 305-0311 Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 9 a.m. - 6 p.m. and Wednesday from 11 a.m. – 5 p.m., and the staff members will help make shelter referrals or help individuals find alternatives to shelters.
