Point In Time Count

Communities using funds from the Dept. of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) are required to conduct periodic counts of people experiencing homelessness. This data is compiled locally and nationally to inform programs and planning.

Homeward has coordinated Richmond's Point-In-Time (PIT) count since 1999, and substantially expanded and refined the process over the years. Since 2007, Homeward has conducted both a summer count and a winter count in an effort to understand the changing nature of homelessness over time. In November 2007, Homeward used data gathered in January 2007 to produce our first State of Homelessness report.
