Work in social services and made some calls today.
Many of the warming shelters are going to be open beyond usual capacity this weekend. Some are breaking out extra cots to put in places not usually designated bedrooms. The list of official shelters can be found here. Transportation is also available.
Some schools have announced that they’re also opening up as emergency warming shelters, but I haven’t been able to identify a full list.
Cold weather housing is in effect. This means that if someone calls 211 without adequate housing, there may be options for housing in motels paid for through emergency funds (as available).
It’s not nearly enough, but it is something.

thank you, I'm glad to hear that. I volunteer at a place where I encounter some people who might need that.
