Homeless Counts and PIT Resources

Homeless Management Information System

Point-in-Time (PIT) Homeless Census

Since 2003, HUD has required continuums across our nation to report the number of people who are homeless at a particular time of the year (in the last week of January).  The annual homeless count facilitates the need for continuums to collect demographic data and report on the number of people experiencing homelessness.  The data is used for (1) housing and service planning, (2) demonstrating need, (3) raising public awareness, (4) accurately identifying the needs population, e.g. chronically homeless and veterans, and (5) measuring performance in reducing/ending homelessness.  The work activities performed by the CoC membership, with oversight by the CoC Board.
