Looks like the last entry in this blogg was sometime in 2012 and the posts were done by Carolyn Snow. Well, I want to continue this avenue of communication by noting that we are now over half way through 2014 and have made considerable progress to date. The shelter has a capacity of 12 residents and stays full (4 women and 8 men) plus one woman who has a small private room and functions as our kitchen and laundry supervisor.

It seems that when a resident decides to leave, or finds new quarters, or who's behavior has dictated an invitation to go find another place to sleep, there is another waiting out there somewhere. We did get a better sign on the drive way, but even before that, they come. We have to turn down a few each week for lack of space.

We have tried to keep directors, but that has not seemed to work out. We are constantly learning. At this time, the shelter sort of governs itself, depending on our guidance on a daily basis, as well as peer pressure.
