LAFAYETTE, LA (January 18, 2025) – In response to the imminent freezing temperatures approaching the community, Lafayette Consolidated Government and the Lafayette Parish Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (OHSEP) will open a warming center to provide refuge for individuals experiencing homelessness or who lack adequate heat at Dupuis Recreation Center (1212 East Pont Des Mouton Road, Lafayette, Louisiana) beginning 6:00 pm Sunday, January 19, 2025. Working in coordination with community partners, this collaborative effort works to ensure the safety and well-being of the most vulnerable members of our community during this anticipated weather event.

Those needing warm shelter can present at St. Joseph Diner (613 West Simcoe Street) starting at 5:30 pm Sunday, January 19, to be transported to the prepared LCG warming center, or present in person at the Dupuis Recreation Center at Brown Park (1212 East Pont Des Mouton Road), beginning at 6 pm. Warming centers will remain open until temperatures are expected to rise above the freezing mark.
