flag Steubenville, Ohio, remains without a homeless shelter three months after its last one closed, worsening a statewide housing crisis.

flag In October, Steubenville, Ohio, lost its only homeless shelters after Urban Mission Ministries closed due to financial strain, leaving hundreds without stable housing. flag Three months later, no permanent replacement exists, forcing residents to rely on limited, temporary warming centers or travel to neighboring counties. flag The city’s proximity to West Virginia and Pennsylvania draws people from multiple states, complicating access to Ohio’s housing services. flag This crisis reflects a broader statewide shortage: Ohio has 8,338 homeless adults but fewer than 5,701 year-round shelter beds, creating a gap of over 2,600. flag Other communities like Athens and Marietta are also struggling, with differing approaches to shelter planning.
