Safe Haven Hope Center Executive Director says first six months have been "really good"

Safe Haven Hope Center in Green Bay has completed its first six months as a low-barrier shelter, with executive director Cathi Oreto describing the period as “really good” while acknowledging ongoing challenges. Since beginning operations under its permit on May 19, three residents have graduated, including one who moved into long-term housing. Up to nine of the 19 permitted residents have held jobs. Police recorded 43 calls linked to the property, though the police chief said the shelter had not caused many problems.
