Columbus just saw its largest-ever homeless count, with over 300 volunteers braving the freezing dark to connect with people living outdoors. What stood out wasn’t just the numbers, but the sense of community among those in the encampments—folks looking out for each other, sharing warmth, and even offering hand warmers to volunteers. Despite more funding and new warming centers, shelters are stretched thin and many still fear being displaced. The stories and resilience witnessed during the count are a powerful reminder: homelessness is complex, and real solutions will take all of us. How do you think our city should respond? #Safety #Columbus #Homelessness
