Help for unsheltered relatives at a crossroads
As dangerously bitter winter weather takes hold of the country, some efforts to help unsheltered Native Americans face closure.
City officials forced an emergency shelter set up in Rapid City, South Dakota, to shut down. Successful shelters in Seattle and Minneapolis that cater to unsheltered Native residents face pressure by outside forces that intend to develop the sites for other uses. And Anchorage continues a troubling ongoing trend of homeless fatalities.
Join Native America Calling to look into some of the ongoing struggles to help unhoused relatives.
