Agency Works To Get IDs For Homeless Residents

The 2018 Point-In-Time Homeless Count conducted by the Maricopa Association of Governments earlier this year found more than 6,200 people experiencing homelessness on a particular night in January.

There are agencies who work to help people find housing or jobs, but to get those, you need identification. That’s where the Homeless ID Project comes in.

On The Show to talk about it is Rick Mitchell, the group’s executive director.
