Operational Updates and Closures

Warming Stations and Safe HousingFour warming stations are open in Tulsa for individuals and families seeking shelter from the cold.

Housing Solutions and area partner agencies have outreach teams continuing to move those experiencing homelessness into shelters while weather and road conditions permit. For those choosing to stay unsheltered, outreach teams continue to ask them to go inside and are conducting welfare checks as much as possible. Local shelters will offer shelter-in-place services, meaning those who visit their shelter will be able to stay there throughout the duration of this winter weather event.

If you see someone in need of safe and warm housing, you can fill out a Housing Solutions Homeless Street Outreach Request online at https://www.housingsolutionstulsa.org/assistance-request/. Tulsa County UpdatesAll Tulsa County facilities are closed today. However, the Tulsa County Election Board is open today until 6 p.m. for early voting.
