San Bernardino County is seeking volunteers to participate in the annual Point-in-Time Count on Jan. 28, 2027.
Each year, the San Bernardino County Office of Homeless Services and the San Bernardino County Homeless Partnership collaborate to conduct the annual count, which provides a snapshot of the county’s homeless population. The information helps officials track progress, identify community needs and ensure resources are directed where they are most needed.
The 2026 Point-in-Time Count identified 3,718 sheltered and unsheltered homeless individuals, which represents a 3.1 percent decrease from the previous year. Among those counted, 2,448 individuals were unsheltered and 1,270 were sheltered. Unsheltered homelessness decreased by 188 individuals, or 7.1 percent, from last year.
