Point-in-Time (PIT) &
Housing Inventory Counts

PIT Count

Annually, the DE CoC conducts a statewide outreach effort and census count of persons experiencing homelessness during the last 10 nights in January. The PIT Count provides a snapshot of Delaware's homeless response system and helps obtain critical information on the number, characteristics, need, and challenges of people experiencing homelessness in our state.

PIT data is used to

  • Inform legislative, policy, and planning initiatives

  • Educate and raise awareness about homelessness 

  • Advocate for strategies and solutions to address homelessness

  • Support funding applications for dedicated homeless assistance resources

  • Evaluate the CoC's progress on reducing homelessness

System Performance Measures

The DE CoC is responsible for designing a local “system” that assists persons experiencing homelessness and provides the services necessary to access and stabilize in housing. 

 

The DE CoC reports system-level performance to regularly measure progress in meeting the needs of Delawareans experiencing homelessness. HUD uses this this to help gauge the state of the homeless response system nationally.

DE CoC Racial Disparities Assessments

HUD requires CoCs to regularly conduct a racial disparities assessment and include a process for analyzing whether any racial disparities are present in the provision or outcomes of homeless assistance services.

The DE CoC conducts a racial disparities assessment by:

  • Utilizing census data along with various CMIS reports and CI data

  • Analyzing data across all system, project, & client-level data types, regardless of funding source

  • Reviewing results with the CoC Racial Justice & Equity Committee prior public distribution
