Last month, Rogue Retreat was blessed to receive ten, 64 sq. ft. cabin-style shelters from Seattle-based Pallet.  The shelters are being prioritized for the medically vulnerable and senior population at the Temporary Urban Campground. These shelters will allow their occupants the ability to find stability, access services, and begin their reintegration into society.  

Made of a durable aluminum frame and insulated composite walls, the prefabricated Pallet shelters can be assembled in as little as 30 minutes each. Each shelter is equipped with a locking door, bed, openable windows, heating, air conditioning, and storage.

“Pallet provides safe and secure shelter that moves people off of the streets and into stability immediately -- and then on to permanent housing,” says Amy King, Pallet Founder and CEO. “Whereas permanent housing and mass shelters can take years to construct, we can shelter a person experiencing homelessness the same day we arrive on site.”

“We are truly grateful for this amazing donation. Our community is working to recover from a devastating loss and these shelters will save lives” says Chad McComas, Executive Director at Rogue Retreat. “Our medically fragile and seniors that are at risk will be placed in these desperately needed shelter units, and given wrap around services to help them move forward into more permanent forms of housing and shelter. We are honored to get to partner with Pallet, The Livability Team, the City of Medford, Jackson County Sheriff’s Office, St. Vincent De Paul, Medford Gospel Mission and many more to help make shelter available to our communities most vulnerable.”
