Fairbanks Housing & Homeless Coalition
On the night of January 23, 2018 there were 122 people in the emergency shelters in Fairbanks. There were 48 more people staying in transitional housing. There were unknown numbers of people seeking temporary shelter with friends and family. There were also at least 48 people left utterly unsheltered. It was 30 degrees below zero that night.
Fairbanks is a wonderful place live and raise a family, but what the pictures above don't show are the relatively hidden homeless community members.
