The 2021 PiT Survey began at 6:00 pm on October 2nd and continued for 24 hours. The survey was available for completion in the City of Thunder Bay at the Canadian Lakehead Exhibition (CLE) which was the only public drop in site due to COVID-19. Additionally, clients staying at a variety of emergency shelter and transitional housing locations were also invited to participate at those locations. In addition, PiT Surveys were available for completion in Greenstone, Nipigon, Schreiber, Marathon, and Conmee. A total of 221 individuals completed the survey. While the number of surveys completed in 2021 (221) was less than those collected in 2018 (474), and 2016 (289) this should not be interpreted as an indication of a decrease in the homeless population in the District of Thunder Bay. Due to the presence of COVID-19, the number of locations where the public could drop in and complete the survey was reduced from the 2016 and 2018 PiT Surveys. |
