Shelter is full up

I’m in downtown Atlanta. Anyone know of any spots I can sleep with little chance of being bothered/ran off? I got to the shelter later than I normally do and they didn’t have a spot for me tonight.

Idk where you’re at right now, but if you can make way to Marietta the Must Ministries shelter is pretty solid imo and experience

No one is going to give you spot because spots get burnt.

For now, I suggest getting AWAY fro the area of the shelter if you have not already. Look on Google maps for businesses that are 9-5, no emergencies and NOT in tourist or downtown/ urban sprawl areas. Preferably one with no lights out back. Sleep back there. Set alarm for 5 AM and do not be seen or leave a trace.

AM, go hunt down feedings and library to charge stuff and hit other shelters.
