Once again this season, we plan to open the RMM Winter Clothing Closet on most Mondays, November through March, as supplies last. We provide adults with new and gently used coats, as well as winter clothing and essentials. All items are distributed free of charge.
We are able to accommodate approximately 50 guests per week, and guests are allowed one visit per season (unless otherwise noted). No referral is necessary, but any form of ID is required. The WCC is first come, first serve. No line holding, and items only distributed to those present.
Clothing is distributed based on supplies/donations available. Generally, guests can expect to get the following clothing items each visit: Heavy winter coat (once a season), light jacket, sweatshirt/sweater, t-shirt, pants/skirt, underwear, socks, winter hat, scarf, gloves, and toiletry kit. We distribute shoes, interview clothing and specialty clothes only when available.
