Make a Difference in the lives of the unsheltered- Sign up for the 2015 Point in Time Count!
The Point In Time Count is a count that is done annually of people who are unsheltered and experiencing homelessness. This survey is important because it accesses the unsheltered and gives accurate numbers of those who are unsheltered. This year, there are three days where volunteers are needed to go out and complete on-site surveys with individuals experiencing homelessness who are willing to participate. Volunteers will be paired into groups with a leader who drives them to the different areas that are covered. The locations that are visited are usually campsites, soup kitchens, shelters, parks were the unsheltered are in the morning time. All participants will be required to attend a brief outreach training.
The count will take place on the following dates:
Wednesday, January 28 5:00 am – 8:00 am
Thursday, January 29 5:00 am – 8:00 am
Friday, January 30 5:00 am – 8:00 am
