A COLLABORATION TO END HOMELESSNESS IN EL DORADO COUNTY
El Dorado Opportunity Knocks Continuum of Care (EDOK CoC) is a regional planning body of representative stakeholders in El Dorado County that coordinates the community’s policies, strategies, and activities toward preventing and ending homelessness.
Its work includes gathering and analyzing information to determine the needs of people experiencing homelessness, implementing strategic responses, educating the community on homeless issues, providing advice and input on the operations of homeless services, and measuring CoC performance.
2022 Point-In-Time Count
HUD has finally approved our CoC’s final PIT count numbers. Please find attached an Executive Summary of findings and the full Annual Report.
The data gathered and analyzed in these reports is thanks to the dedication of our PIT Count Planning Committee, Day of Count Volunteers, and Persons Experiencing Homelessness who shared their experiences through survey. We are grateful to all of these stakeholders as well as the HHSA and Homebase staff for their work.
Please share these reports with the CoC community and stakeholders.
