This influx – the third, following the initial wave in December and a second surge in May – is affecting shelter capacity and straining staffing availability.
According to the release, Denver is primarily responsible for providing temporary, emergency shelter. With the arrival of cold weather on the horizon, the city is calling on communities around the state to support the sheltering effort, and on nonprofits, faith-based organizations, and individuals to aid in the response by volunteering, joining the effort as a contract worker, and donating needed items such as clothing.
"We have had a significant influx of migrants mostly due to Gov. Abbott in Texas who has been chartering buses full of buses to arrive in the city and county of Denver," Johnston said. approval "We have people who want to work," he said."I also get calls from employers around the city who want the hire the people who have arrived, and we had the federal government getting in the way."
Johnston also said the city is working with migrants to send them to their preferred destinations in appropriate situations.
