Metro Denver Homeless Initiative

Thank you to all of the participating agencies, staff, and volunteers who make it possible to conduct a metro-wide Point in Time count!

 The Metropolitan Denver Homeless Initiative (MDHI), a nonprofit organization that seeks to end homelessness across the metropolitan Denver area,  is conducting a Point in Time homeless survey on January 24, 2012.

The purpose of the annual Point-in-Time study is to count the number of homeless individuals on one day of the year and to educate citizens about the presence of homelessness within their own communities.  Community, faith-based, and local government organizations use the information collected from the Point in Time study to identify the trends and service needs of the homeless population in the metro Denver region.

Volunteers and service providers are conducting interviews with homeless individuals and families in emergency shelters, human service organizations, and other places where homeless people congregate across the metropolitan area on January 24, 2012.
