The Point In Time (PIT) Count, sheds light on the situations of local sheltered and unsheltered homeless individuals and gathers information to help those in need as well as develop more effective homelessness prevention programs. Last year, a total of 254 individuals experiencing homelessness, in shelters, transitional housing, and unsheltered, were surveyed in Muscogee and Russell County. The survey collected data about each individual’s current housing situation, families, and health. The total was up 2% from 2020, many of which were most likely due to the pandemic. Two warming shelters were open leaving only 18 unsheltered.
