WESTOVER — On Thursday, January 28, 2016 the Homeless Alliance for the Lower Shore (HALS) Continuum of Care (CoC) Committee will conduct the annual Point in Time count of sheltered and unsheltered individuals and families in Somerset, Wicomico and Worcester counties. Volunteers will be needed to assist with this effort.
HUD requires Continuum of Care Committees to conduct a count of people experiencing homelessness living in unsheltered locations (cars, outdoors, abandoned building & places not meant for human habitation) as well as people residing in sheltered locations such as emergency and transitional shelters or motels/hotels paid for by another agency or church.
This year’s PIT count will continue the efforts of Youth REACH MD to identify the number of unaccompanied youth and young adults ages 24 years or younger who are not living with a parent or guardian and do not have a fixed, stable, permanent place to call home.

ReplyDeleteBet it's worse than they ever imagined!
As a volunteer at church for the homeless, there aren't enough beds, or places for them to stay. Some of them have early evening and late evening sleep times. I stopped going to the library because they hang out there during the day in lobby and sofas. Hog up the computers as well.
Your compassion is overwhelming. If that's how you feel about the homeless, why do you volunteer?
