Join the City of Mesa for the Point-In-Time Homeless Street and Shelter Count. The Point-In-Time Homeless Street and Shelter Count is an effort to learn more about the individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Maricopa County and the entire country. In order to accomplish local and federal goals toward ending homelessness, we first need to know who is experiencing homelessness, where they are, and better understand the factors surrounding their homelessness.
Volunteers are needed Tuesday, January 23rd from 5:00am - 12:00pm to survey individuals experiencing homelessness in Mesa, so they can be provided with programs and services that will best fit their needs.
