Help Needed To Find, Count Homeless In North Escambia

January 18, 2009

Help is needed to find and help count the homeless population in North Escambia.

The EscaRosa Coalition on the Homeless is organizing the annual Point-in Time Homeless Count, a survey required in communities across America to obtain federal funding for programs that assist the homeless.

January is also “Help the Homeless Month” in Florida as proclaimed by Governor Charlie Crist.

The count of the homeless is scheduled over a 24 hour period – from 3 p.m. January 29 through 3 p.m. January 30. If you know the names and locations of any homeless individuals in North Escambia, or if you would like to volunteer to conduct the surveys, please call the office of Ann Brooks at 256-2999 or email acbcpapa@bellsouth.net.
