During times of below freezing temperatures, we will permit newcomers and residents to return who have previously been banned for various infractions of shelter rules. They will be allowed to sleep inside and eat a meal but must leave in the morning if instructed by a supervisor to exit the facility. We will still, however, be performing criminal background checks and will continue to deny entry to any individual who has a history of violent or s*xual offenses. The reason for this is that Mama T’s houses men, women and children whose safety we must protect. Anyone who cannot be admitted will be referred for consideration to any warming centers that might exist. We have warming kits that include sleeping bags for those who may need them.”
