Jefferson City Room at the Inn (JCRATI)
Is There Room at the Inn?
Yes! During these cold winter months, there is room for 20 adults at Jefferson City Room at the Inn (JCRATI) hosted in our activities building. This volunteer-staffed coalition of community members is providing a warm and safe low-barrier overnight shelter for men and women during the winter months.
Located on the upper level of our gym at 107 Monroe Street, JCRATI will operate daily from 5:30 p.m. to 7 a.m. beginning December 1, 2024. They will remain open through the first part of March 2025.
FBC is grateful to be a part of this community initiative. We have provided funds and the space to support the work, but volunteers are the most important way we can contribute to supporting our unhoused neighbors.
