MRWS conducting a homelessness count
In order to figure out what the homelessness is like in Rocky Mountain House, Clearwater County and the Village of Caroline, the MRWS will be going out and doing an actual count.
The Point In Time (PiT) Count is a government survey that will help identify how many people in our region are experiencing homelessness in shelters and on the streets at a given time.
Coordinator, Gwen MacGregor says homelessness is often hidden, so this will help them better understand how many are actually homeless so they can access services offered in the Town and County.
“We decided that homelessness was a big factor in the County as well as the Town and in order to get answers to the housing here, we need to know who aren’t we supporting.”
