Homelessness Soars in St. Charles County | St. Louis News

Homelessness in St. Charles County has nearly tripled in three years, with over 550 adults and 200 children counted homeless—up 50% from last year. Rising housing costs are forcing employed residents into motels, cars, storage units, or couches. With no permanent shelters left since the Salvation Army facility closed two years ago, families face dire winters with only emergency aid available. A $30,000 temporary fund offers fleeting relief, but officials warn without proactive action, this invisible crisis will only grow worse.
