The following are the slides from a November 13, 2020, presentation by Clementina Verjan of the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority to a meeting of the SPA 6 Homeless Coaltion on plans for the next annual LA County Homeless Count to be held in late January 2021. Due to the covid-19 virus there are many changes from the procedures of previous counts. Street count teams will be reduced to two per car instead of the previous 3 or 4. People from the same household will be favored. A phone app in place of paper forms will be used to reduce handling.

 Good afternoon,

I’m reaching out to share that United Way will be hosting our first-ever virtual HomeWalk on Saturday, November 14^th.

We’re asking the community to spend the day doing your own 5K run/walk, share photos and videos of your day using the hashtag #HomeWalkAtHome, then come together at 5 p.m. for a virtual program featuring live entertainment with the LA Rams cheerleaders, players, Coach McVay, stories from our formerly homeless neighbors, and much more.
