HARTFORD, CONN. (December 8, 2023) – Today, the City of Hartford announced that it will open its overnight warming center for the winter season starting this Sunday, December 10th, from 7 PM to 7 AM. The primary warming center will be located at 110 Washington Street, the former location of Adult Education. Managed by the South Park Inn, and will be able to accommodate 45 people.
In addition to the warming center at 110 Washington Street, any families who are in need of shelter should call 211 to receive assistance, and 211 will connect families with The Salvation Army for triage and placement as available. The city will also coordinate daytime warming centers on days with frigid conditions.
“Warming centers can save lives, and it's really important that we can provide a safe, warm place for people to go as the nights get colder,” said Mayor Bronin. “We're grateful to the South Park Inn for partnering with us to staff and manage the warming center at 110 Washington Street. As we open our warming center here in Hartford, I also want to encourage communities around Hartford to do the same, even if it's just establishing emergency shelters on especially cold nights. We often see a significant number of people coming to our warming center from surrounding communities, and with the need growing everywhere, I'm worried that Hartford’s shelters and warming centers alone just won’t be enough for the entire region."
