In Close Quarters, a Moment's Peace Is Rare
The human tragedy of shelters as transient spaces not designed to live in, just to wait in, have been finding their way into the media. in a certain way, it is impressive just how well these things are currently run and how many people volunteer. It is also impressive just how crowded these spaces have to be right now because there are so many people displaced. This overcrowding makes for a tough time, requiring a lot of patience from people who have been torn away from all they had, from people they knew, from everything familiar, and plunged in the middle of another version of a minor human hell.
