LOS ANGELES—With intense rain in the forecast, the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) announced Jan. 31 it is opening additional shelters across the region to provide more space for unhoused people to escape the weather.

The Augmented Winter Shelter Program is activated during particularly cold or wet weather conditions. LAHSA’s normal Winter Shelter Program began Nov. 1 and will remain operational until March 31. That program offers shelter at a variety of fixed sites across the area.
