Letter: Take a walk to the INN Between
(Trent Nelson | The Salt Lake Tribune) When The INN Between, a Salt Lake City homeless hospice for those with terminal illnesses, moved into this small neighborhood on Salt Lake City’s east side in May, residents worried it would operate as a de facto homeless shelter and bring increased crime. Six months later, they say their worst fears have come true. Friday Nov. 16, 2018.
To the opposition in the increasingly heated stalemate over the INN Between Homeless Hospice Center, may I venture just one suggestion?
Try volunteering at the center for one week. Talk to the patients. Hear their stories. What you discover might surprise you.
