Wyoming Winds tracks homeless issues

Each month, Virginia Sellner at the Wyoming Coalition for the Homeless, sends me the organization's Wyoming Winds newsletter. It used to be a print publication and now it's online only. It includes articles about the WCH's Welcome Mat shelter and other local issues that affect homelessness. The WCH is now raising funds for renovations to its shelter. It also needs volunteers. It always welcomes clothing items, especially coats and boots and gloves and other cold-weather gear. Very important, as we're getting an early start on the cold and snow.

Other Wyoming Winds articles are taken from similar publications in the U.S. and internationally. Some of it hits close to home as more and more families in the U.S. lose jobs and homes.
