This World Homeless Day, Central and Southwest Florida shelters are seeing more people look to them for help following Hurricane Ian. Now those shelters are preparing for what the coming months could look like. Stefanie Edwards is the Community Cooperative CEO. It's a Fort Myers-based nonprofit focused on feeding and housing people in need. "The impacts of Hurricane Ian are unprecedented in this community," Edwards said. "I don't know that anybody in our community is prepared and ready for what it's going to look like putting it back together."
