New Point-In-Time Homelessness Count
June 11
The Maricopa Association of Governments shared the findings of their 2025 Point-In-Time Homelessness Count. Through this count, they are able to identify the number of people experiencing homelessness during a given time while also identifying how to address their needs.
The count found that there was a 3% increase in the number of people that are experiencing homelessness. Officials are saying that the loss of federal funding for 1,000 shelter beds contributed to this increase.
Brian Gruters, the Regional Homeless Program Manager at the Maricopa Association of Governments, joined “Arizona Horizon” to share more on the findings of the Point in Time Count.
