January 2021 Homeless Count

Details
on 14 November 2020

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.

Homelessness in South Los Angeles

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
