The 2019 Point In Time (PIT) count will take place on Wednesday January 23, 2019
The PIT count will be conducted to identify persons experiencing homelessness in New Hampshire. The Bureau of Housing Supports (BHS) together with service and community providers, which serve homeless individuals and families, will report the number of sheltered and unsheltered persons for a 24-hour period.
An accurate, unduplicated count is required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
If you serve individuals within the Balance of State or anywhere outside of Manchester or Greater Nashua, please send questions and completed surveys to Heidi.Petzold@dhhs.nh.gov by February 11, 2019.
