VOLUNTEERS NEEDED: POINT IN TIME COUNT, THURSDAY, JANUARY 30

Getting accurate information on those who are homeless is key to defining the services needed to help those who are homeless and to prevent homelessness. You need to set up an online account, then click on the small “follow” button to fill out the online volunteer signup form.
This is especially important as the number of homeless people has increased dramatically. For our local area, it is important to find out if back to back hurricanes increased the homeless population and where funds available are needed.
