What supplemental data should the County collect between annual Point-in-Time counts?

The report finds that reliance on a single-day annual count limits planning for changing needs and recommends supplemental methods for a more current, year-round understanding of the homeless population.

Why this matters

Better information about families, shelter status, service use, and seasonal changes can support more realistic budgets and program capacity decisions.
