HOUSING
P-I-T Count
Everybody Counts in Dallas and Collin Counties. Each year, communities across the nation participate in the Point-in-Time (PIT) Count—a critical effort to better understand and address homelessness in our communities. The PIT Count is a requirement under federal law and provides valuable insights into the extent of homelessness, emerging trends, and the impact of local efforts to create solutions.
As the Continuum of Care (CoC) Lead Agency for Dallas and Collin Counties (TX-600 CoC), Housing Forward, in partnership with the All-Neighbors Coalition’s Partner Organizations, will conduct the 2025 PIT Count on Thursday, January 23, 2025, 6pm-11pm focusing on unsheltered individuals.
Together, we can make a difference.
