Gwendolyn Crisp, direct care specialist at Laura Dester Shelter for three years, sits for a portrait inside a play room on the campus in Tulsa on Wednesday, July 13, 2016. "I felt sad when I hear the shelter was closing down," Crisp said. "I was concerned about where the kids would go." The shelter was closing down, but in the recent weeks there have been more and more children arriving at the shelter. As long as there are children in need of the shelter, it will not close.
