| Why Do We Need a Homeless Count? |
|
To establish a baseline of our homeless population,
so that we can track our progress towards reducing homelessness, |
|
To preserve over $10 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 County
of Orange Housing and Community Services Department has partnered
with two local non-profit agencies that regularly work with homeless
service providers, 2-1-1
Orange County and OC
Partnership, to help conduct the Count and Survey process. The
Social Science
Research Center at CSU Fullerton is our research partner and is
working with this collaborative to create the methodology and survey
tools, consistent with government guidelines and current research
standards. |
