Volunteers will fan out across Los Angeles County later this month to conduct the annual count of people experiencing homelessness, and Duarte city officials on Friday invited residents to participate locally.
The volunteer-driven effort provides data that is essential to understanding the extent of homelessness in the county and guides the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority in providing resources and services to unhoused individuals.
Duarte’s 2025 Homeless Count is scheduled for Jan. 22 starting at 8 p.m. Volunteers will gather at the Duarte Senior Center, 1610 Huntington Drive, which is the deployment site.
The homelessness survey “will help … LAHSA identify needs, direct resources, and develop strategies to combat homelessness,” according to city officials, who encouraged participants to form “Count Team Bubbles” with friends, family or co-workers. Volunteers without a team may join one at the deployment site.
Registration for Duarte’s 2025 Homeless Count is at TheyCountWillYou.org.
