Homeless shelter extended one month

Aspen’s homeless will have warm, dry beds to sleep in through the month of April, a full month more than previous years.

Local officials involved in the valley’s Homeless Coalition announced Tuesday that the Community Church in Aspen has agreed to host the shelter one month beyond its traditional March 31 closing date at St. Mary Catholic Church.

Some funding offers are on the table, according to coalition member and Right Door Director Brad Osborn, and the Aspen Valley Medical Foundation will continue to provide bag breakfasts and lunches.

The shelter is looking for volunteers to fill out shifts for the month of April.
