Community Update. We're open.

On December 1st Haus of Codec shared this message with our community partners.

Good Afternoon Community Partners. After nearly a year of planning. Haus of Codec is opening its doors tonight to provide emergency shelter for folx 18 - 24. A few things you must know before referring folx to the shelter. We have 6 beds for referrals and 2 emergency cots for walk-ins. These are available on a first come first serve basis. We ask that if you have someone in need, please have them call ahead to our shelter 401-484-7465 Shelter residents will have 1 meal provided for them (typically breakfast) on a daily basis. A small kitchen area will be made available for folx if they wish to make something for themselves and/or the other residents. Our doors open at 6pm. Thank you for your support and dedication to this community project. We couldn't have done it without you.

Our second wave of outreach included our LGBTQQIA+ network of artists and vendors.
