Home MenuPoint-In-Time Count
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires all recipients of federal funding to provide homeless services. The Continuums of Care (CoC) across the country report the findings of their local Point-in-Time (PIT) count of unhoused individuals in their annual funding application to HUD. Currently, the San Joaquin County CoC receives annual federal funding and as such is required to report their findings.
The San Joaquin County Point-In-time count is a county-wide effort with the aide and in partnership with local jurisdictions, community groups, and residents. Every two years communities across the country conduct comprehensive counts of the local homeless populations in order to measure the prevalence of homelessness in each local continuum of care.
