Due to the expected temperature drop this evening, New Bedford’s overflow shelter at 75 Division Street will be activated. Also due to the coronavirus, the shelter will not be able to lay 30 cots out. Each cot will be 6ft away from each other and the layout will be from head to toe / and toe to head.
The shelter will practice as much social distancing as possible which in turn does affect the number of individuals who will be able to access the overflow. The shelter is doing the best they can under these challenging times and hopes to keep everybody safe.
All inquiries can be forwarded to Sister Rose House and 1-800-homeless.
