Yearly statewide and by-Continuum of Care total counts of individuals receiving homeless response services by age group, race, gender, veteran status, and disability status.

This data comes from the Homelessness Data Integration System (HDIS), a statewide data warehouse which compiles and processes data from all 44 California Continuums of Care (CoC)—regional homelessness service coordination and planning bodies. Each CoC collects data about the people it serves through its programs, such as homelessness prevention services, street outreach services, permanent housing interventions and a range of other strategies aligned with California’s Housing First objectives.

The dataset uploaded reflects the 2024 HUD Data Standard Changes. Previously, Race and Ethnicity were separate files but are now combined.

The Veterans' Employment and Training Service (VETS) tracks HVRP participant outcomes using data collected from grant recipients. VETS shares HVRP outcomes with the public. These data show the national level targets and outcomes for eleven (11) measures by Program Year (PY), including breakouts by sex, ethnicity, race, age, and grant population. The 11 measures are: Number of Participants Served Percentage of Total Participants Served Number of Exiters Percentage of Total Number of Exiters Number of Participants Co-Enrolled at American Job Centers (AJCs) Average Hourly Wage at Placement Placement Rate (exit-based) Placement Rate – Episodically Homeless (exit-based) Employment Rate 2nd Quarter After Exit Employment Rate 4th Quarter After Exit Median Earnings 2nd Quarter After Exit"

Quarterly Technical Performance Report (TPR) from HVRP grant recipients. This includes demographic and employment characteristics of HVRP participants aggregated at the grant recipient-level. The TPR is an Excel-based data collection and reporting tool for grant recipients to enter participant and project information. The workbook allows VETS’ Grant Officer’s Technical Representatives (GOTR) to monitor performance and enables the aggregation and analysis of grant recipient data to assess the effectiveness of grant programs and submit reports to Congress. Grant recipients must submit the TPR and its accompanying TPN for a specific grant award for all twelve quarters in the grant Period of Performance (PoP). The TPR Excel workbook is comprised of six worksheets: 1. Planned Goals – Recipient input required 2. Tech Perf Report – Report / minimal recipient input required 3. New Enrollment Entry – Recipient input optional 4. Participant Info – Recipient input required 5. Demographics Summary – Report / No input required 6. Goals v. Actual – Report / No input required

This brief uses data from the 2009 and 2010 Annual Homeless Assessment Reports (AHAR) to Congress. The reports were sponsored by the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Department of Veterans Affairs.

This dataset comes from Pierce County's Homeless Management Information System (HMIS). HMIS is a local information technology system used to collect client-level data and data on the provision of housing and services to homeless individuals and families and persons at risk of homelessness.

Federal and State funders require any Continuum of Care receiving federal and state homeless funds use a locally-administered data system to record and analyze homeless information. To comply with this requirement Pierce County has contracted with Bowman Systems L.L.C. for the use of the ServicePoint HMIS database.

Context

This database contains the data reported in the Annual Homeless Assessment Report to Congress (AHAR). It represents a point-In-time count (PIT) of homeless individuals, as well as a housing inventory count (HIC) conducted annually.

The data represent the most comprehensive national-level assessment of homelessness in America, including PIT and HIC estimates of homelessness, as well as estimates of chronically homeless persons, homeless veterans, and homeless children and youth.

These data can be trended over time and correlated with other metrics of housing availability and affordability, in order to better understand the particular type of housing resources that may be needed from a social determinants of health perspective.

HUD captures these data annually through the Continuum of Care (CoC) program. CoC-level reporting data have been crosswalked to county levels for purposes of analysis of this dataset.

The County of Sonoma conducts an annual homeless count for the entire county. The survey data is derived from a sample of about 600 homeless persons countywide per year. The resulting information is statistically reliable only for the county as a whole, not for individual locations. The exception is the City of Santa Rosa, where the sample taken within the city is large enough to be predictive of the overall homeless population in that city.
