SWAP Impact

The Severe Weather Activation Program (SWAP) is a program that activates during inclement weather and provides life-saving measures for people experiencing unsheltered homelessness. SWAP will assess households and administer hotel vouchers directly to enrolled households when the weather poses a threat to the well-being and lives of people sleeping or living outdoors.

October marked the official start of the severe weather sheltering season with the first SWAP activation from October 27th - 31st.

The graph below shows the stats from our first activation and what a difference it makes in our communities.
