Homefull returns to Springfield after the city's prior shelter provider files for bankruptcy
Homefull began operating an emergency shelter at Springfield's former Fire Station 5 on May 22, 2026, as Sheltered Inc. closed following a bankruptcy filing. WYSO reported that the operation was supported by a one-year city contract worth up to $853,758 and just under $400,000 from Clark County. Homefull had left Springfield in 2024 after the city declined to renew its earlier contract.
