Egan Warming Centers

Egan Warming Centers in Eugene and Springfield have been activated nightly since Friday.

Egan warming centers were one of the few safe havens for people experiencing homelessness, and those whose homes were no longer safe because of power outages, or damage from the storm.

The icy weather has been hardest on those who are houseless in our community. St. Vincent de Paul is among the many Eugene area organizations providing shelter during this crisis.

The Egan Warming Centers are getting ready for the winter season and activation to provide low barrier shelter on freezing nights.

Despite a mid-September warm-up, cooler weather is rapidly approaching. And that means social service agencies are looking ahead to the need to provide shelter for unhoused people on cold winter nights.

After a long, cold winter protecting the unsheltered in Eugene and Springfield, the operations of Egan Warming Centers have concluded. It was a record-setting season.

Volunteers are still being sought for a network of warming sites for the unhoused across Eugene-Springfield.
