DYCD PARTICIPATES IN FIRST NYC YOUTH COUNT
In collaboration with the NYC Department of Homeless Services, the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness, and the U.S. Departments of Housing and Urban Development, Health and Human Services and Education, DYCD participated in the New York City’s first Youth Count. New York City was identified as one of nine cities nationwide to integrate the counting of homeless youth into its annual point-in-time count known as the Hope Count. The purpose of the youth count was to help identify the number of homeless youth who are living on the street as well as those residing in city shelters. From January 28 at 10:00 pm until 4:00 pm January 29, volunteers from various city agencies and non-profits administered the Youth Count surveys at seven locations throughout New York City. The final number of youth counted is still being compiled in collaboration with the Department of Homeless Services.
