Homeless Families Count Census Reveals 189 O.C. Families Struggling with Housing

Thanks to everyone who helped during the Homeless Families Count three-day census. From May 23-25, SPIN joined with several other local nonprofits for this family assessment week to capture information on those struggling with housing across Orange County. Working together, we identified 189 families who were either homeless or in need of housing assistance. This information allows us to get to know these families, identify their needs, and work to improve services and resources to support these families and help them move toward stable housing. According to the information gathered, the average homeless family had two children, many with children age 6 or younger.
