We are quickly approaching the CT 2012 Point-In-Time Count, set to take place on January 25, 2012. This year, per HUD specifications we will only be conducting a sheltered count of the homeless population. In addition, we are using a simplified mechanism to ensure an efficient, effective count.
First, all Agencies/Programs will be entering their Population/Bed Count information via a webform instead of filling out paper program information forms as in years prior.
Secondly, only those agencies/programs that do not participate in HMIS will have to fill out paper surveys. The rest of the agencies/programs will have their client demographic data pulled directly from their respective CTHMIS.
A webinar was held on January 12, 2012 which outlined the 2012 PIT process which will be made available online at CTHMIS.com. If you have any questions about the Point-In-Time process please contact your 2012 PIT Area Point of Contact or Ed Lazu at The Connecticut Coalition to End Homelessness (elazu@cceh.org), resources and documents relating to the PIT can be found at CCEH’s PIT TA page located at http://www.cceh.org/ta/detail/point-in-time-2011/34.
