Unitarian Universalists in Dubuque participated with the Dubuque Area Congregations United on October 22, 2024 to start weaving sleeping mats from plastic grocery bags that have been collected for months. These mats will eventually be donated to unhoused folx. There were about 70 people who spent all or part of the afternoon sorting, cutting, and weaving these mats. There was an evening program following the work session from Advocates for the Homeless - Community Solutions of East Iowa, explaining how the numbers of homeless individuals are counted as well as services.
