This Wednesday, there is a homelessness service project that is desperately in need of your help.  The annual point-in-time homeless count is Wednesday, from 6 pm to 11 pm. Each year, New Haven advocates do a count of the homeless in new haven, by sending groups of 3-4 advocates to different parts of New Haven, and actually counting the # of homeless. THIS NUMBER IS USED TO DETERMINE FUNDING FOR NEW HAVEN'S HOMELESSNESS NETWORK.  And this year, the count is EXTREMELY SHORT ON VOLUNTEERS.  So any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.

If you have limited time on Wednesday night, you can arrive at the count as late as 7 pm, and the count will be over for most groups by between 9:30 and 10:00. The count meets at a church on Whitney, but we will be meeting (the yhhap coalition) at Dwight Hall and shuttling over together.  If you are interested, please send me an email.  Or call, at8473632879.  Finally, if you can make it and have a Dwight Hall license, or a car, let me know; we're a bit short on that end too.  Please contact This email address is hidden from email harvesters via JavaScript .
