More than 100 volunteers are still needed to help with the 2024 Southern Nevada Homeless Census, which will count unsheltered individuals experiencing homelessness in Las Vegas.
Volunteers are expected to commit between three to four hours of their time on Thursday, Jan. 25.
During their shift, volunteers will be assigned to groups who will walk or drive assigned areas to count those not in shelter and conduct short surveys of any individuals who willing to be interviewed.
The 2023 Homeless Census found over 6,500 people living in shelters or on the streets and estimated that nearly 16,250 people experienced homelessness in Southern Nevada at some point during the year.
Anyone interested in volunteering is asked to visit helphopehome.org for information.
