POINT-IN-TIME COUNT REPORT 2021

MEASURING THE SCOPE AND NATURE OF HOMELESSNESS IN DURHAM

Community Development Council Durham
The Region of Durham

The Point-in-Time (PiT) Count Report 2021 provides a snapshot of the nature of homelessness in the Durham Region in 2021 based on the Point-in-Time (PiT) Count. These findings include the total number of people counted as homeless in the Region within a 24-hour period, basic demographics of survey participants, and other indicators of how and why people were experiencing homelessness in the Durham Region.

The findings in this report are based on surveys conducted in the Region of Durham’s eight participating communities (Town of Ajax, Township of Brock, Municipality of Clarington, City of Oshawa, City of Pickering, Township of Scugog, Township of Uxbridge, and the Town of Whitby).

This project funded by the Regional Municipality of Durham through Government of Canada’s Homelessness Partnering Strategy.
