United Way Shares Listing of Local Warming Station Locations for the 2024-2025 Winter Season
Lehigh Valley locations have been designated as winter warming stations for the community throughout the winter months. Warming stations are short-term emergency shelters that operate when the temperature and weather conditions become dangerously inclement. They serve in the prevention of death and injury from exposure to the elements. Many warming stations provide shelter, food and a safe place for those experiencing homelessness in our community.
For the most up-to-date listings and information on volunteering at these locations, contact PA 211 East by phone at 2-1-1 or visit pa211.org.
