Ugh this is so messed up
. Like, I get it, it's cold and stuff, but 17 deaths due to hypothermia since January? That's just heartbreaking
. And the thing is, it's not just the homeless people who are at risk, it's also the working poor and seniors who might not have access to heat or warm clothes
.
I mean, I know the city is trying with the warming centers and whatnot, but we need better coordination between agencies
. Like, how can police officers not know where the warming centers are? It's just not right
. We need to do better than that, especially for those who are already struggling.
I'm also worried about the homeless population, they're so vulnerable
. We need to make sure they have access to warmth, food, and shelter
. This cold snap is not a natural disaster, it's a human crisis
.
