'Our best is not good enough': St. Louis advocates for unhoused race to make bed space.

The City of St. Louis is changing strategies to open more beds than last winter though they will not be available until Dec. 1.

"We need to do better as a community. We just do," St. Patrick Center CEO Anthony D'Agostino said. Standing among small pockets of melting snow, D'Agostino said this is a particularly crucial time of year for the unhoused. "I'm very concerned for the people who are literally outside because this is when it gets scary, it gets dangerous," he said.
