L.A. County homeless count returns after a yearlong hiatus.
After a yearlong hiatus during the pandemic, thousands of volunteers will fan out across Los Angeles County this week to conduct the annual count of the region’s homeless population.
This year’s count, which will take place over three days beginning Tuesday, is an especially important one for the county. It’s the first time volunteers will conduct the count electronically.
“We missed a year,” she said in a phone interview. “We know things have shifted during that period of time.” The homeless count picks up on Wednesday in West Los Angeles, Southeast Los Angeles and the South Bay. And finally, volunteers Thursday canvass the Antelope Valley, Metro Los Angeles and South Los Angeles.
“If we can understand people experiencing homelessness better — who they are, why they’re homeless, and what health issues they have — we can create more effective strategies quicker,” he said.
