Why Do We Need a Homeless
Count? |
|
To establish a baseline of
our homeless population, so that we can track our progress
toward reducing homelessness, |
|
To preserve over $11 million in current
federal funding for homeless services in Orange County,
and enhance our ability to raise new private and government
funds in the future, |
 |
To improve the ability of government and
service providers to plan and implement effective services, |
 |
And, to increase public awareness of homelessness
throughout Orange County. |
|
| |
| Who is Coordinating the Count? |
The OC
Community Services and Health
Care Agency has partnered with Applied
Survey Research and OC
Partnership, to help conduct the Count and Survey process.
Applied Survey Research will be responsible for implementing the
methodology and collating the count results. OC Partnership will
provide day-to-day project management and logistical support and
oversee the volunteer recruitment. Orange County Health Care Agency
will provide resources to ensure that the unsheltered, hard-to-reach
and homeless with physical and mental disabilities are given a
voice. OC Community Services will provide project leadership and
guidance. |
