Del Norte County’s annual census of local homeless persons will be starting again soon and while the Department of Health and Human Services says it has plenty of volunteers, there are still ways the public can help.
“We’re always looking for gently-used items like sleeping bags and camping equipment,” said DHHS Coordinator Jesse Ferguson.
Volunteers will soon be going into areas where homeless are known to camp, stay or take refuge. The count begins Jan. 23 and efforts will continue to month’s end.
