The 2016 Greater Los Angeles Homeless Count takes place on Thursday, January 26th in the Los Angeles Greater Metro area. The Greater Wilshire Neighborhood Council, along with many of our neighboring NCs, have joined with the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) to marshal volunteers for the annual count. Last year we conducted the largest homeless census in the nation and this year we are poised for an even bigger showing of community engagement. The count provides valuable data to support programs and funding.
Here is information on the Count in the GWNC district:
Date/time: Thursday, January 28, 2016 beginning at 8pm.
Deployment site: United Methodist Church at 4350 Wilshire Bl. (corner Plymouth). There is ample free parking in the lot (enter on Wilshire). Look for signs to Homeless Count.

For more information on the count, registration, and training information, visit the website at: http://www.theycountwillyou.org/.
The Greater Wilshire Neighborhood Council is a non-partisan entity mandated by the City of Los Angeles. Our purpose is to advise on issues of concern to our neighborhood and on City governance.
We will elect 21 board members and alternates to serve 2-year terms: 15 by geographic region (see map below) and 6 special interest categories (representing Renters, Business, Education, Religion, Other Non-Profit groups, and At-Large).
