At the January 9th Board meeting, the Nevada County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved funding for winter overflow at Hospitality House. This funding, together with matching funding provided by the City of Grass Valley, will help fund 15 additional emergency shelter beds from November 15th, 2017 through April 15th, 2018. The joint effort from Nevada County and the City of Grass Valley will help with increased staffing and resource needs associated with the larger winter capacity. According to Hospitality House Executive Director Nancy Baglietto, “with no continuously operating winter warming shelter yet in place, the County's funding will help to fill a critical safety gap for those who have nowhere else to turn during the coldest months of the year…We are fortunate to have the support of the County and appreciate their ongoing collaboration.”
