SUMMARY:Point In Time Count
DESCRIPTION:A Point-in-Time (PiT) Count is a coordinated community effort to estimate the number of people experiencing homelessness in a community on a single night (the “enumeration”) and includes a survey that is administered directly to individuals experiencing homelessness. Conducted over subsequent years\, PiT count enumerations can be used by the community to track progress in reducing homelessness and identify changes in overnight location. The survey collects information on the characteristics and experiences of people affected by homelessness to help community organisations and all orders of government better understand and serve the individuals experiencing homelessness in Canada. \nTo volunteer for Durham Region’s Pit Count please visit PiT Count Volunteers Needed \nTo learn more about the PiT Count please visit \n\nHousing\, Infrastructure and Communities Canada – Everyone Counts – The Nationally Coordinated Point-in-Time Counts of Homelessness in Canada\nHomelessness Learning Hub – Point-in-Time Counts
