2025-2026 Season
Pasadena is pleased to announce the opening of the Bad Weather Shelter for 2025-2026, once again operated by our partners at Friends In Deed.
The Pasadena Bad Weather Shelter will be open to serve adults experiencing homelessness on weather-activated nights beginning Tuesday, December 23. The shelter’s operating hours are 7:30 p.m. to 7:30 a.m. Guests may begin lining up at 6:30 p.m. on nights the shelter is activated. Please call 888-915-8111 or visit the City of Pasadena Extreme Weather Portal to find out if the shelter is activated.
The Pasadena Bad Weather Shelter is located at Trinity Lutheran Church:
997 E Walnut St, Pasadena, CA 91106
The shelter is open on a weather-activated basis. Weather-activation criteria are as follows:
- The NWS forecast calls for overnight low wind chill temperatures of 40 degrees or below.
- The NWS forecast calls for a 40% or greater chance of rain with at least ¼” of precipitation accumulation in a 24-hour period.
- The NWS forecast calls for 40 mph or greater wind gusts.
- The NWS issues a flood watch or warning.
- Conditions not previously identified by the plan but for which it would be prudent to do so based upon critical need, as recommended by the Housing Director and Fire Chief and approved by the City Manager or their designees.
The criteria apply to overnight forecasts between the hours of 7:30 p.m. and 7:30 a.m.
