Volunteers throughout Washington, DC are needed to assist with a survey of homeless residents that will help determine the need for services and guide decisions about how to use available resources.
Results of the 2013 count and survey will provide benchmark numbers, which establish a basis for developing local community and regional strategies to help alleviate homelessness and measure the effectiveness of programs currently serving homeless individuals and families. Please consider participating in this event to learn how to love our neighbors better.
Register to volunteer HERE.
