Every year, during the last full week of January, communities across the country come together for a critical and compassionate undertaking known as the Point in Time (PIT) Count. This nationwide event is not just a procedure; it is a moment of reflection, understanding, and action against homelessness.
In each state starting on January 22nd, Continuums of Care along side countless other organizations like Love My Neighbor Foundation, will count this most vulnerable population one by one with the most dignity and respect. This event is an annual requirement of the US Dept. of Housing & Urban Development and ultimately determines federal spending amounts for programs that aid homeless individuals!
The most recent natural events that have occurred nationwide, will undoubtedly contribute to a staggering number of those homeless and displaced!
We will keep you all posted towards the end of the month on our Central Mississippi population.
