Annual Homeless Census
On January 31, 2024, we conducted the 44th annual homeless census to help us better quantify homelessness in Boston.
In the annual Homeless Census, volunteers go out through all neighborhoods of Boston. They survey and offer shelter and services to people staying on the street.
