Point-in-Time Count 2021 Cochrane District (Timmins)

As part of the Province’s efforts to end chronic homelessness by 2025 and the long-term goal to end homelessness, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing communicated to Service Managers and sector organizations its intention to not only continue with Pointin-Time Counts (PiT) which began in 2017, but also introduce By-Name Lists (BNL) across Ontario in 2021. Local homeless enumeration, said differently, the Point-in-Time method, is more than a tool used to count the number of people experiencing homelessness on a given day/night. It is a strategy used to provide insight into the nature and extent of homelessness within a community. The survey collects data about the demographics, history, and service needs of those experiencing homelessness to help guide decision-makers, planners, and service providers in directing resources to areas of greatest need. In April 2021, an Advisory Group was established in order to provide expertise, guidance, and support regarding the planning and implementation of a successful Point-in-Time (PiT) Count and By-Name List (BNL). In addition, a Lead Coordinator was hired to lead the initiative with the support of the Advisory Group.
