Dear Bozeman Commissioners,
Please accept this letter in support of city funding for HRDC year-round shelter
operations. Due to the affordable housing crisis in our community, need for shelter
continues to increase. I urge the City to continue providing essential funding to ensure
our neighbors have safe shelter.
As a mental health professional that often supports our most at-risk and high-needs
people in this community, I strongly believe that funding year-round shelter operations is
imperative. Daily I see the negative impacts of the housing crisis in Bozeman which so
often leads to mental health crises.
Sincerely,
Siri Devlin, LCPC
