Research and Reports

HSH publishes several reports related to homeless services and San Francisco’s response to homelessness.

A biennial count of people experiencing unsheltered and sheltered homelessness at a given point in time. At least once every two years, communities that receive federal funding for homelessness services are required to conduct a Point-in-Time (PIT) Count. This count helps us understand how many people are experiencing sheltered and unsheltered homelessness on a given night across the country.
