S1EP31: Understanding the PIT Count

Veterans Health Administration
About this episode
This month, we are joined by William Snow, Senior Program Specialist in the Office of Special Needs Assistance Programs at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to learn the Point-in-Time (PIT) Count. Mr. Snow talks about what the PIT Count is, how it’s conducted, and how the U.S. Government uses its insights to inform the work to end Veteran homelessness.

Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness are strongly encouraged to contact the National Call Center for Homeless Veterans at (877) 4AID-VET (877-424-3838) for assistance.
