St. Paul is launching a bold, $1 million push to end homelessness before winter—with a major encampment at Pig’s Eye Park set to close August 5th. City and county leaders are teaming up to expand shelter beds and connect residents with case management and housing resources, aiming to stabilize lives amid rising safety concerns like fires, assaults, and overdoses. Mayor Kaohly Her stresses this is part of a long-term strategy, acknowledging the deep-rooted challenges—including mental health struggles and pandemic-era job losses—that make quick fixes impossible. The move, timed for colder months, seeks to offer immediate safety while building pathways to lasting stability for those most vulnerable.
