The annual Point-In-Time (PIT) count provides a snapshot of homelessness in Snohomish County, and it determines how funding and other types of assistance are directed to the area. Learn more about this year's Point In Time Count, hear from YWCA Resource Navigators Matt Lawrence and Ali Hawach, and learn why places like YWCA’s Pathways for Women emergency shelter (the only emergency shelter in South Snohomish County) are needed now more than ever.

YWCA's Pathways for Women has provided temporary housing and other aid for women and children for 20 years, but rising costs are straining its resources. Hear from Kresha Green, YWCA's Regional Director of Housing Services, as she discusses how the lack of affordable housing and rising food costs in the last 20 years have exacerbated the community's needs, and what people can do to help.
