APPLETON, Wis. — The City of Appleton is partnering with a nonprofit organization to better serve homeless residents during the winter months.
Appleton announces a $300,000 dollar grant which will allow Pillars, Inc. to increase shelter resources and provide outreach and daytime services during the weekends.
The Pillars Winter Shelter Overflow program will run from Oct. 15-April 15, 2023. It’s open to people eligible for shelter but cannot get into a shelter that’s at capacity.
Such clients will be given temporary alternate housing, and Pillar’s staff will conduct frequent check-ins and monitor those arrangements to ensure shelter policies are being followed.
