    3. What is the Homeless Count? At least once every 2 years, volunteers from across the nation hit the streets to better understand what homelessness looks like in their communities. Due to Los Angeles County’s size and population, the Greater Los Angeles Homeless Count is the largest in the nation. Homeless Counts are required by the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) for every Continuum of Care (CoC). May 25, 2012 3/12

HUD does not base funding decisions on estimates from Homeless Counts at this time… however, that may change. Additionally, HUD requires that CoCs document the scale of homelessness in their communities as part of the SuperNOFA funding application.
