Janice Hahn will be in Downey Wednesday for homeless count

DOWNEY — Supervisor Janice Hahn will be in Downey on Wednesday to participate in the 2018 Greater Los Angeles Homeless County, an annual event which is used to get an estimate the number of homeless individuals living in Los Angeles County. 

While Hahn's staff will attend counts across the 4th district, Hahn herself will volunteer at the count taking place in Downey on Wednesday, Jan. 24, at 8 pm.  

Volunteers will meet at the First Baptist Church of Downey located at 8348 3rd street.

Hahn will speak to volunteers ahead of the count and discuss the progress made and the challenges ahead in the effort to house LA County’s nearly 58,000 homeless residents.

There is still time to volunteer. To sign up for a homeless count in your neighborhood visit https://www.theycountwillyou.org/
