Prince Albert’s less fortunate struggling to stay warm
The colder temperatures are putting more pressure on the city's shelters and food bank.
Central Avenue Residential Services is at full capacity.
“This week alone we've seen a rise in numbers from people who need emergency shelter. At this location we have turned away 23 women and 19 children because we are at full capacity,” said Manager Jodi Dolter.
She said many of the people who get turned away will go to stay with friends and family at overcrowded homes. As for supplies, Dolter said they are doing okay.
“People have been very generous. They have been donating lots of things,” said Dolter.
