New Shelter Brings Hope to Upper Valley | Burlington News

A brand new 20-bed year-round shelter and resource center just opened in the Upper Valley, offering immediate housing and support where waitlists can stretch for months. Named the Patrick and Marcelle Leahy Shelter and Resource Center, it features semi-private pods upstairs and a community resource hub downstairs with job tools, computers, and partner services. Funded by over $10 million in private and public dollars—including USDA and Vermont Housing grants—it’s strategically located near jobs, healthcare, and government offices. Designed to serve hundreds annually and deliver thousands of bed nights, this center honors the Leahys’ legacy of public service while turning crisis into stability.
