The annual count will take place the night of Thursday, January 24, from 8:00 p.m. to 12:00 midnight and will be hosted by the Silver Lake Community Church.

According to Committee Co-chair Darius Derakshan, “The count is crucial to understanding how many homeless neighbors we have in Silver Lake and assists in determining the resources that go to our community. We need your help with the important visual-only count.”
