No, pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness don’t fold into caskets. It’s a question a reader posed one of the first times I wrote about pallet shelters. I find the pallet shelters to be more palatable than ice fishing tents. The Colorado Village Collaborative operates both micro-communities and the so-called Safe Outdoor Spaces with the tents. We all learned the tents are not safe when a fire roared through a CVC Safe Outdoor Space, destroying the compound quickly. Officials never disclosed a cause of the fire.

In 2022, 23-year-old Sophia Rosing went viral after a video captured her physically and verbally assaulting 19-year-old Kylah Spring. At the time, Spring revealed she tried to check on Rosing, who seemed drunk and needed help. However, the treatment she got in return was quite unfortunate. The viral video of Sophia Rosing’s racial attack showed her violently kicking, punching, and biting Spring. To make matters worse, she used the N-word repeatedly on the victim. Spring also went into detail about what happened in a TikTok video.
