Chester County 2025 Point-in-Time Count Homelessness in Chester County at One Point in Time

On the evening of Wednesday, January 29 and early hours of Thursday, January 30, 2025 the Chester County Department of Community Development (DCD) facilitated the annual Point in Time Count (PIT). This is a national effort sponsored by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and data from the count is included in the Annual Homeless Assessment Report (AHAR), which is presented to Congress. The purpose of this initiative is to determine the number of people currently experiencing homelessness on a given night, to better understand homelessness in Chester County and across the nation, and to support the Chester County Partnership to End Homelessness’ efforts to prevent and solve homelessness.
