Annual PIT Count - TreasureCoast Homeless Services Council, Inc

Volunteer to help evaluate the state of homelessness on the Treasure Coast.

Each year, the Treasure Coast Services Council conducts the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) mandatory, one-day, Point in Time (PIT) count. This count is conducted in all three of our served counties during one of the last ten days of January. In 2024 the count was held on January 25, 2024 and showed 701 literally homeless individuals. The count is traditionally held on a date within the last 10 days of January, but for 2025 it will be held at the end of February as a result to the disaster relief efforts conducted by the local CoC in response to hurricane Miltion.

The Annual PIT count is a key step in understanding the state of homelessness on the Treasure Coast. It represents a snapshot of both sheltered and unsheltered literally homeless individuals, youths, and families.

Volunteers and staff wear identifying t-shirts for awareness and safety. Those interviewed who are experiencing homelessness will receive Care-Packs which will include essentials and more information on resources and agencies that can help. Packs will include:

List of resources
Hygiene kit
Food items
Sunscreen and Bug spray
Blankets
Branded BackPack
