How are we doing?

For the first time in 9 months, more people are flowing into the homelessness services system — 390 — than are flowing out, with 301 people exiting to housing or another place, such as long-term treatment. Exits are slowing because housing programs that serve those who have been living outdoors or staying in shelters are full. The good news is that over the past week, 200 people who had been living outdoors moved into cold weather shelter. That's about 40% of our unsheltered neighbors!
