Greater Los Angeles 2020 Homeless Count

“In 2020, I’m eager to see our community members lend a helping hand to those in need,” said Supervisor Kathryn Barger. “Currently, there are more than 58,000 people who are facing homelessness across LA County. I’m continuing to lead initiatives to ensure our homeless population has resources for jobs, mental health care and housing. But in order to provide them with services, we need to know where they are living. We’re gearing up for the 2020 Greater Los Angeles Homeless Count and need thousands of volunteers. This three-day event is another important tool in our effort to track the most up-to-date data, which helps us get a better picture of who is homeless and ultimately helps decide where funding is needed.
