BRISTOL COUNTY CONTINUUM OF CARE
The CoC pursues a comprehensive response to homelessness using a “Continuum of Care” methodology through a community-based network. The BCCC is a membership-driven collective of over 60 organizations, agencies and individuals committed to working together in addressing all variants of homelessness particularly those experiencing chronic homelessness and those unsheltered/unhoused.
The City of New Bedford has conducted its annual “Point In Time” [PIT] count that creates a census of those individuals and families experiencing homelessness within the city, both sheltered and unsheltered. This is a big operation and requires a lot of effort and many hands. The results from the 2017 PIT, initially presented at the HSPN April 20, 2017 meeting, are now available here: 2017 PIT PRESENTATION.
