After the last couple of years stuck in a neutral gray area, the effort to provide shelter to the homeless in Beaver County has taken a major step forward.

The Cornerstone of Beaver County has announced that a new homeless shelter for men will be opening in Vanport Township soon, providing the county with its first such shelter in over two years. The announcement was made on A.M. Beaver County with Matt Drzik, as Marie Timpano, Dina Ciabottoni & Ashley McLoughlin talked about the teamwork and generosity that has fueled this shelter’s existence, as well as the work that still needs done from clerical and societal perspectives.
