Warming Centers Take In Homeless

January 23, 2013



Two warming centers in Detroit have been sheltering the homeless from the arctic air the last couple of days. One is the Operation Get Down center near I-94 and East Grand Boulevard. It can accommodate about 200 people. The other is Cass Community Social Services in Midtown, on Cass north of Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard. Faith Fowler is the director of Cass Community Social Services. WDET's Pat Batcheller asked her how many people have sought refuge from the weather.
