Summer Shelter Crisis in La Crosse | Eau Claire News
Streams straight from the publisher. PodNod never proxies or re-hosts episode audio.
When summer heat turns streets into unbearable shelters, the La Crosse Salvation Army is stepping up—offering daily meals, showers, laundry, and crucial case management to 64 guests each day. With costs soaring at $150 per person and demand at full capacity for over six years, they’re helping 88 people find housing last year and 32 households get energy aid this summer. Case managers guide guests through ID, jobs, therapy, and finances—yet affordable housing remains the biggest barrier. They’re calling on the community to volunteer or donate, reminding us that homelessness isn’t invisible—it’s right next door, and everyone deserves dignity and a chance to thrive.
