United Way Shelter Changing Hours: Effective July 7, 2024

United Way of Weld County has announced new weekend hours for the Housing Navigation Center’s 24-hour shelter located at 870 28th Street, Greeley.

Starting Sunday, July 7, 2024, the shelter will be closed on Saturdays and Sundays from 8:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. The new hours will stay the same every weekend until July 31, 2024. The change will not impact the overnight shelter services or the weekday operations.
