In addition, a “doggie day care” will be available onsite while participants are attending the event, Crow- ell said. The event, Crowell said, typically sees 200 partici- pants. She said it’s amaz- ing at how many people may be close to being homeless, which makes it that much more important for others to reach out and help. “Some people live pay- check-to-paycheck and you never know when your cir- cumstances will change,” she said.

WORSHIP IV SUPPORT HOLDINGS LLC NO NO NO at one time because people may not know what services are available they might need,” Crowell said. “They can get all the information they need to fill any gaps that they have.” Crowell and Sharon Waldern, who both work in the education depart- ment at Good Shepherd Health Care System, said it’s important to reach out to the homeless and others in need. The focus, Wal- dern said, isn’t necessarily to change a person’s life- style, but to provide assis- tance to help in meeting basic needs. “We want to offer help where we can to help keep them warmer and drier and get a flu shot,” Waldern said. “Or a chance to be seen by a physician or dentist to help keep them somewhat healthy.” Also, basic medical and dental examinations, a shower and haircuts will all be available.
