Us & Them: Shelter From The Virus
The coronavirus has changed everything. People around the globe have spent nearly a year sheltering at home, adhering to restrictions and requirements to avoid the contagious COVID-19.
Imagine what that experience is like for someone who’s homeless. If your only option for a warm bed is a group shelter, will you take it – or will you stay on the street? Across the country, shelters meet public health requirements to make congregate housing as safe as possible.

This episode of Us & Them is presented with support from the Claude Worthington Benedum Foundation and the West Virginia Humanities Council.
