Webinar: Preparing for the 2017 PIT Count: Promising Practices for Counting Youth

November 22, 2016

Preparing for the 2017 PIT Count: Promising Practices for Counting Youth from USICH on Vimeo.

Establishing a baseline means that as we measure national and local progress on ending youth homelessness with the PIT count, 2017 will be used as the initial comparison year. To help communities prepare for the PIT count, USICH hosted a webinar on promising practices for counting youth including considerations from federal agencies and recently published resources, early lessons learned from the national Voices of Youth Count initiative led by Chapin Hall, highlights from a local youth count, and recommendations on integrating efforts to count youth as part of the broader PIT count.

Panelists:

Jasmine Hayes, U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness
William Snow, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
Peter Nicewicz, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
Joaquin Tamayo, U.S. Department of Education
Sonali Patel, Voices of Youth Count, Chapin Hall
