City Calls For Volunteers for Homeless Count

The City is seeking volunteers for the 2023 for the Pasadena Homeless Count.

The survey will take place the evening of January 24th and the morning of January 25th.

The Homeless Count sets in motion a year full of education, engagement and action for the Pasadena Partnership. Each year, volunteers help count people experiencing homelessness living on the streets of Pasadena during one night in the last ten days of January.

Volunteers will be sent in teams of 3 to 4 to an assigned zone from 8 to 10 p.m. on the night of January 24 and the 6 to 8 a.m. of January 25 to help count and administer a survey to our neighbors experiencing homelessness. The same teams go out together in the evening and the morning. Volunteers should be 18 years old or older and are asked to attend an online orientation to prepare for the count on January 17. The volunteer registration deadline is January 6.

The annual homeless count helps inform the state of homelessness in Pasadena, helps advocate for vital community resources and engages directly with our neighbors experiencing homelessness. 

This year the teams will assemble cold weather kits to hand out during the survey.

Volunteer registration is now open and will remain open until January 6th. All volunteers can sign up at www.pasadenapartnership.org.

Volunteers are the backbone of ensuring the Count is a success and is carried out effectively and comprehensively.
