The City of Kent will be activating the Severe Weather Shelter (SWS) at Kent Lutheran Church the evenings of Sunday January 15th, Monday January 16th, and Tuesday January 17th due to dangerously low temperature predictions and snow.
Kent Lutheran Church
336 2nd Ave South
Kent, WA 98032-5849
9PM - check in and registration
7AM - shelter closes, all must vacate
Priority is given to homeless families with children who are living on the streets or in vehicles, but the SWS is also available for unoccompanied women and men; separate sleeping space has been prepared for men, women, and for families with children. The SWS will be operated by Catholic Community Services staff and volunteers from Kent Lutheran Church and the greater Kent community.
The Kent SWS will be open at 9PM Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday nights. All must register at the door. As with all shelters, rules for the health and safety of clients, staff and the broader community will apply.
For more information please contact the City of Kent, Housing & Human Services office at 253-856-5070.
