In the impeding frigid weather and possible snow, should you see someone on the street and think they’re in need of shelter, you can call the DC Department of Human Services Shelter Hotline Number at 1-800 535 7252.

They can provide transportation to a shelter and also provide blankets and clothing to homeless person who choose not go to shelters. It’s a fantastic public service and one that should be called if you have any worry, however slight, about the health and safety of someone on the street.
