As the coldest air of the season moves into North Texas the city of Dallas has activated its temporary inclement weather shelter in Fair Park Sunday night to ensure hundreds of homeless Dallas residents can stay safe and warm.

The City of Dallas, in partnership with several nonprofits, opened a shelter able to house 900 people at Fair Park on Sunday, while homeowners and TxDOT prepared for the deep freeze and possible precipitation too.

The city of Dallas, the Austin Street Center, Our Calling, and countless other organizations partnered to open this shelter for the city's most vulnerable. Volunteers will distribute blankets coats and three meals—and pets are welcome too.
