2018 Clark County Homeless Crisis Response System Numbers
Identifying outcomes, collecting data and measuring progress are critical components to reducing homelessness locally and across the nation. The two most common ways data are collected is through the Homelessness Management Information System (HMIS) and the Point-in-Time (PIT) Count. The HMIS system collects client-level data and allows communities to identify the number of people needing assistance due to homelessness and the number of people who received assistance and what type, in an unduplicated way. This can be collected for any time frame.
