SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – The Regional Taskforce on the Homeless will not conduct its 2021 annual Point-in-Time Count of unsheltered San Diegans due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was announced Tuesday.
According to the RTFH, a typical Point-in-Time Count requires nearly 1,600 volunteers due to the size and population of San Diego County. It is typically conducted in mid-January.
The decision was grounded in concerns for the safety and well-being of individuals experiencing homelessness, volunteers and RTFH staff, according to the task force, which cited surging coronavirus case numbers, stay-at-home orders and the need for close interactions to conduct the survey.
The region’s Continuum of Care was granted an exception by the Department of Housing and Urban Development this week.
