The Just Compassion Shelter and Resource Center in Tigard symbolizes hope and support for the local homeless community. Opened on March 19, the 10,000-square-foot facility replaces a smaller, remodeled home and offers essential services such as clothing, food, and overnight accommodations. Danielle Leverberg, a homeless woman, shared her gratitude for the shelter's opening, emphasizing its life-changing role in her survival over the past year. Seeing the facility's construction from her previous location, she reflected on the journey from a 'hole in the ground' to a vital community resource.
"The new Just Compassion Shelter and Resource Center is a much-needed facility that has been a lifeline for many in our community. It offers essential services like food and shelter to those experiencing homelessness."
"Having this shelter right next door has been life-changing for me. I've received clothing, food, and a warm place to stay, which has literally kept me alive during tough times."
