Cortez Police officers tend to an intoxicated man near the library recently. Police routinely take people to the shelter if they see them out in the cold at night.
Four Bridge Emergency Shelter clients enjoy dinner at the shelter shortly after it opened for the evening at 6 p.m. The shelter is open until 7 a.m. Breakfast is also available to clients before they leave in the morning.
