In accordance with a mandate from HUD, member agencies of the HOT Homeless Coalition, numerous volunteers, homeless individuals, church members and City employees took part in a point in time count of unsheltered homeless persons during January 2007. The files (below) detail the results and methodology used.
Why did we count?
- Help us prepare data for the Continuum of Care Grant
- Help us know this sub-population in our community – Who are they?
- Help us understand the causes of homelessness
- Help our community know/plan needed services/resources
- Help raise public awareness
- Help us know where homeless live besides in shelters
- Help us track the progress we are making to reduce homelessness
