TUCSON, Ariz. — Learning to crotchet, Tina Thompson enjoyed the cool blast of air conditioning inside Sister Jose Women’s Center.Being inside is a blessing for her because at 52 years old, she’s been living on the streets for two years, coming to the center on Tuesday.It’s those seizures that can be especially life-threatening when she stays out in the heat too long. She said they occur more often when she stays outside too long.
Taking advantage of the center on Wednesday was Teresa Wood. She has nowhere to go and has been at the center for about 4 days. Since she can’t afford a car, she has to walk everywhere, which can get exhausting for her in the heat.However, being at the center is helping her health because she gets to stay there overnight.
