Our children should not be a secondary consideration to adult services. The long-standing Homeless Men’s Shelter on State Street sits directly adjacent to East McDowell Middle School, creating a daily, unacceptable threat to student safety. Marion’s kids shouldn’t face erratic behavior on their walk to local classrooms. We are not safe, and our schools are not secure.
