Winter 2020 Point-in-Time Count volunteering

Have you ever wondered how Homeward gets the data that supports its work? You can be a part of that effort on January 23rd by volunteering at our winter 2020 Point-in-Time (PIT) count. The PIT count is a regional census of people that are experiencing homelessness. 

Volunteers will be able to connect with their neighbors experiencing homelessness, hear their story and take an active role in changing the narrative of homelessness in Virginia. 

We are looking to fill volunteer positions for both our service fair at Centenary United Methodist church  and the community dinner at First Baptist Church. At both opportunities, volunteers will connect with and offer a survey to the guests. Be sure to read the shift description when registering. Time and location varies per shift. Training will be provided electronically in advance.

We ask that volunteers bring a smart phone with a data plan to allow us to conduct the survey electronically. All volunteers must be 18+. Email questions spage@homewardva.org or  call at 804-343-2045 x24.
