DENVER — A Denver motel that serves as a shelter for people experiencing homelessness will close Sept. 16.
"We had been chronically homeless," she said."I was escaping a domestic violence situation. So, I drove here from Nevada to get away from that, and these people helped me." In a statement to Denver7, a spokesperson for Denver's Department of Housing Stability said in part,"Colorado Coalition for the Homeless is working with shelter guests on individual case plans to meet their individual needs. There are a handful of non-congregate shelter programs and shelter alternatives that can serve couples together. In the event all of those shelter resources are full, couples may have to stay individually while they wait for one of those resources to open up.
The city has been using FEMA funds to operate the facility, which was never intended to be a permanent option for individuals experiencing homelessness. However, the city is expecting the funds to dwindle, which is why the closure was initiated. Some staying at the Quality Inn questioned why the city was closing the motel that houses the most people.
