Today, hundreds of volunteers completed San Diego County's 2023 Point In Time Count to measure homelessness. Results of the count are not yet available and will likely underrepresent true numbers according to homeless advocates.
The Point in Time Count is required by the federal government to qualify for certain funds.
KUSI’s Ed Lenderman went live in Downtown where volunteers were waking hundreds of homeless up at 4/5/6 a.m. to serve them questionnaire’s regarding their living situations. County Supervisor Jim Desmond joined Good Morning San Diego after participating in the county’s count for hours.
