The radio broadcast featured Jonathan Iaconas, the clothing coordinator at Haven of Rest, discussing the essential service the clothing department provides at the client service building. He highlighted that the department connects the generosity of the community to the practical needs of guests, helping to affirm their dignity by offering high-quality, organized clothing free of charge in a setting described as a department store. As the weather turns cold, the team is busy transitioning to fall and winter items like coats, jackets, hats, and new undergarments, with a particular ongoing need for men's pants in sizes 28-34. Donations are processed, sorted, and weighed (with about 60-70,000 lbs of clothes received monthly) by staff, volunteers, and community service workers, who also help provide household items for those moving out. Jonathan estimates the department handles around 1,000 appointments a month and asks for prayers for the team's health and the filling of open positions.
