Still on our streets: Results of the 2008 Metro Vancouver homeless count
Description:
This count measured homelessness in the region at a point-in-time – one 24-hour period (from 12:01 am to 11:59 pm) on March 11th, 2008. A point-in-time count tells us how many homeless people were counted in the one 24-hour period. The figure produced in a 24-hour count is lower than the number of different people who experience homelessness over a period of time. Homelessness is often episodic. A point-in-time count does not capture the number of people that move in and out of homelessness throughout the course of a year.
