Last year, volunteers in Juneau reported 229 people experiencing homelessness. Based on the number of people the Glory Hall serves, Luke Vroman says the point-in-time counts tend to be low, but they’re important “because they lead to funding, eventually.'
The Glory Hall emergency shelter has 42 individual bedrooms like this one, pictured on July 20, 2021.
At both locations, people will be asked to fill out a form to help with the count. They’ll get a $10 IGA gift card if they do. The point-in-time count measures both sheltered and unsheltered homelessness. Ringle says it can also be a chance for people to access services for the first time.
