THRESHOLD — the resource atlas

When the emergency has passed, there is a map

THRESHOLD lists shelter, food, clothing, legal help, medical care, recovery, and meetings across Contra Costa County. Each listing shows how it was checked and when, so call ahead to confirm the details. It opens on its own page so this one stays short.
