We want to give a huge THANK YOU to our amazing staff who took part in the Point-in-Time Count. Your time, compassion, and dedication truly make a difference.
The Point-in-Time Count is so important because it helps our community better understand homelessness, identify needs, and ensure resources are directed where they’re needed most. This work directly supports funding, programs, and long-term solutions for our neighbors.
We are proud to stand alongside our community partners and support the community in this important work. Together, we are showing up, lifting one another, and creating meaningful change.
Thank you for representing our organization with heart, purpose, and commitment.
