Cares Campus winter overflow beds close for the season

Washoe County’s Housing and Homeless Services (HHS) Division closed its winter overflow beds Tuesday, following a phased shutdown that began on April 7. While these seasonal beds are closed, the Nevada Cares Campus Resource Center remains open 24/7 until May 1 as a warming center. After this date, the center will continue serving unhoused individuals without a designated bed at the Nevada Cares Campus or Our Place. The Resource Center provides essential day use services such as laundry, showers, restrooms, meals, and case management. It will be open 6 a.m. – 8 p.m. daily.
