How do you count the homeless population in one night?
Nearly 300 volunteers had until 2 a.m. to find and and survey every homeless person they can find on the streets of Washington, D.C., one of 18 assigned areas nationwide.

Last year, HUD counted a nationwide total of 578,424 homeless, 7,748 of whom lived in the District.
