About GetWarmNowVT

A statewide community initiative ensuring no Vermonter is left in dangerous winter conditions without emergency warmth and dignity.

Our Core Mission

GetWarmNowVT was established to provide an intuitive, centralized, real-time emergency shelter directory for anyone across the Green Mountain State seeking refuge during freezing winter temperatures.

"We believe access to safe, heated shelter during life-threatening cold is a fundamental human right."
