Trend Analysis - The trends seen are likely due to three main reasons
  1. Coordination amongst Street Outreach providers to get people who are unsheltered into emergency shelter or housing has continued to improve.
  2. Emergency shelter bed availability results in decreased unsheltered homelessness numbers.
  3. A significant number of people who were staying in emergency shelter have been housed, 336 people have been exited from the Cares Campus to permanent housing since April 1, 2022.
