Hyde Park United Methodist is part of a network of shelters that provide warm, secure space for those experiencing homelessness. The program is administered by Hillsborough County government, which monitors weather conditions and issues an alert when the weather forecast shows temperatures will drop below 40°F. Once that notice is issued, our team of volunteers mobilizes to setup and open the shelter.
Hyde Park United Methodist’s Cold Weather Shelter is located at its Hyde Park Campus,
500 W. Platt Street, Tampa, 33606.
It is possible a Cold Weather Shelter will be activated either Tuesday Night, March 14, and/or
Wednesday Night, March 15; Hillsborough County will continue to monitor the weather.
