Volunteers Needed for Homelessness Count

January 21, 2025

The V.I. Continuum of Care Council asks for help assessing the territory’s levels of homelessness.

A point-in-time count is a coordinated community effort to estimate the number of people experiencing homelessness in a community in a single day/night and includes a survey administered to individuals experiencing homelessness.

HUD will use our count data to evaluate the effectiveness of USVI efforts to address homelessness and to determine funding amounts for future programming. Accurate data is essential for the USVI.

Volunteer Orientation: Jan. 21 at 11 a.m. and/or Jan. 23 at 11 a.m. Please contact www.usvicoc.org or usvicoc@gmail.com

Keeping our community informed is our top priority.
