We are no longer taking applications for the Executive Director position or the Education and Outreach Specialist.
​Thank you to everyone for their interest!

Please keep following us as we do need to hire overnight staff for our season. If you or anyone you know is interested, we will be posting positions for that in the near future.

The Astoria Warming Center provides overnight shelter during the winter months for people experiencing homelessness. The overnight shelter will be open on a weather-dependent basis from November 15, 2020-March 15, 2021.

We are still providing showers at the AWC on Wednesdays from 12:00-4:00pm through this pandemic. Please follow all social distancing guidelines.

From the AWC Board, many thanks to all the wonderful volunteers and staff who make it possible to keep the Warming Center open this season, and for 90 nights last season!
