Times Union reports RISE's 24-hour Adelphi Street shelter is set to exhaust funding on October 31

The Times Union reported that RISE Housing and Support Services' 24-hour, low-barrier Adelphi Street shelter in Saratoga Springs was expected to run out of operating money on October 31, 2026. A September 24 community panel identified no permanent solution for replacing or sustaining the service. The shelter provides meals, showers, laundry and optional care-management support to people experiencing chronic homelessness.

Status matters. This page records a sourced development, not a completed No Halo investigation. An allegation is not a finding. Dismissals, settlements, judgments, corrections and final outcomes remain distinct.

Donor relevance

Why this matters

Closure would remove a year-round, around-the-clock, low-barrier shelter and related basic services as local officials report substantial homelessness in Saratoga County. The loss could shift demand to police, emergency services and other charities.

Attribution

Who reported or established this

Times Union reporter Wendy Liberatore reported the funding deadline and the lack of a permanent solution following a public panel involving local government, court, business and homelessness-system representatives.

Evidence limits

What remains unverified

No Halo has not established whether new public or private funding will emerge before October 31, whether the final closure date will change, how many current guests will require placement or what specific transition arrangements will be available.

Right of reply

Organization response

RISE has previously said the shelter will permanently close when its operating funding ends. Its published shelter information continued to describe the program as active and requested monetary donations, supplies and volunteer assistance during the sweep period.
