I live around 680 miles from Brainerd and want to know why you want to know if anyone on this forum lives near there? Curiosity or is it just a California thing?

David, et al

Thanks for responding. I have a nephew living in Brainerd who is in a bit of bind and down on his luck. He was made homeless this past Monday. So, I was wondering if anyone from the forum lives in the area that I might ask questions of regarding housing for homeless, possible work and other assistance for this person. My nephew is working with the Crow-Wing County Social Services trying to find housing but if that avenue fails I would ask anyone living in Brainerd if they could suggest other agencies that might assist. This person has been living in a Rodeway Inn for this past week but his stay ends tomorrow (Monday) morning. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where my nephew could ask for housing assistance in Brainerd or any other suggestions please. Thanks, Pete
