Asheville, NC launched a new dashboard to display homelessness demographic data to the public

The city of Asheville launched a new dashboard that displays Point in Time (PIT) count data from an annual data collection focused on homelessness. The city partners with local organizations to obtain specific demographic data on those experiencing homelessness either in emergency shelters, transitional housing, or who are unsheltered. The data collected is de-identified, aggregated, reported to the The United States Department of Housing & Urban Development, and then published on the website.
