Join Your County’s Point In Time Count!

A requirement of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Point in Time Counts are crucial tools in determining what and how resources are distributed to people experiencing homelessness. The count is meant to be a snapshot of unsheltered and sheltered homelessness on a single night, and that data informs what services are needed, tracks changes in the unhoused population, and measures a community’s progress at addressing the homelessness crisis.

An accurate count is not possible without the help of volunteers. Support your community by signing up for your county’s Point in Time count. Because every neighbor counts!
