Detroit shelter overcrowding forces families to sleep in cars

In Detroit, overcrowding at the Cass Community Social Services drop-in shelter is forcing families, like Lastar Jenkins and her children, to sleep in their cars for extended periods, despite the shelter's intended capacity of 75 being exceeded with 210 occupants. Families face harsh conditions and uncertainty as cold weather looms, while the shelter claims that some individuals choose to sleep in their vehicles, emphasizing the dire need for more adequate housing solutions.
