• Bay Area's unhoused community finds shelter and support at SFO (kalw.org) — Unhoused people are increasingly using SFO and nearby Millbrae BART as overnight refuges, shifting with BART’s route changes and airport enforcement. Outreach workers from LifeMoves and airport staff like Lizbeth Sanchez are trying to connect people to shelters in San Mateo County, but fragmented county systems and limited housing mean many still end up sleeping in terminals and stations each night.
