The City of Fort Collins has enacted their emergency shelter plan as temperatures are expected to plummet into the negatives at times in the coming days.

Cities like Fort Collins are now offering 24 hour warming and overnight shelters to those experiencing homelessness though providers like the Catholic Charities and the Rescue Mission.

Domko said his shelter would likely have more than 90 people sleeping in it every night for the coming days as the Front Range combats the frigid temperatures. Many along the Interstate 25 corridor associate homelessness with major metro area cities like Denver and Aurora. However, as Domko noted, there are many people in every community experiencing some form of homelessness.
