Every night, hundreds of people in Pierce County sleep on the streets, in cars, or in shelters.
This January, we are looking for volunteers to join us for the annual Point-In-Time (PIT) Count! The count is a one-day event where outreach workers and volunteers survey people experiencing homelessness.
Communities use the information collected during the PIT count to better understand why people become homeless, plan thoughtful programs that respond to the needs of people experiencing homelessness, review trends to better understand homelessness over time, and so much more!
Volunteers will be stationed at meal sites, day shelters, events such as Project Homeless Connect, and DSHS offices throughout Pierce County. and will complete surveys of people experiencing homelessness.
