The Sarnia Observer

Last winter, 99 people in need of shelter – 12 of them children – were housed in local motel rooms with emergency funding because Sarnia’s homeless shelters were full.

Now, as frost and single-digit lows start to hit overnight, the only thing that’s changed is that funding to help those people isn’t around anymore, said Myles Vanni, executive director of the Inn of the Good Shepherd.
