The Annual Point in Time Count is a nationwide event held in January to provide a snapshot of what homelessness looks like in one night for every community in the country. This year’s count will take place on January 26, 2023.
The Homeless Coalition needs around 500 volunteers to count and survey people living in unsheltered settings throughout Tarrant County. Your efforts will help us to understand what resources our community may need and identify community-wide strategies to end homelessness!
Volunteers can sign up as individuals or create a team. If you do not have a team, you will be matched with other individual volunteers the night of the count. Volunteers are assigned a route to canvass, identify, and interview people staying outside. Mandatory training will be provided to all volunteers via the web and on the night of the count.
Volunteer Requirements:
- Must be 18 years old by the night of the count
- Teams must consist of 3-5 people
- Teams must have access to a smart phone
- Must provide contact information for each team member
- Teams are highly encouraged to ride in one vehicle
- Must be available on Thursday, January 26th, 2023 from 6:00 p.m. to midnight
- Each volunteer must complete participant agreement & waiver form
