Warming Center will remain open this week through the Holidays

[Duluth, MN] The Warming Center will remain open for the week due to falling temperatures. The Warming Center will operate most nights from 8:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. except on December 24 and 25. On the 24, the Warming Center will open at 6:00 p.m. and remain open for 24-hours on December 25.

Starting this week, the Lake Superior Community Health Center will be providing COVID-19 testing and acute care services at the Warming Center. Services will be provided every other week.

The Warming Center is located at the Rainbow Center, 211 N 3rd Ave E. The CHUM Drop-In is also open 24 hours as a Warming Center. The Warming Center is a safe and welcoming nighttime warming space where people experiencing homelessness and other people in need can stay warm overnight.

The Warming Center is a partnership between CHUM, St. Louis County, the City of Duluth, Duluth HRA, and Loaves & Fishes. Due to COVID-19 safety concerns, the Warming Center is not accepting donations or volunteers at this time.
