2020 Point in Time Count Planning Begins

The 2020 Point in Time (PIT) Count is just 4 months away!  The annual Point in Time Count is critical to our community's understanding of homelessness in Pima County and is a key driver of federal and local funding investments.

The PIT Count requires more than 100 community volunteers during the month of January.  The TPCH PIT Workgroup is convening to begin community planning.  If you are interested in participating in this year's planning workgroup, please email abillings@compassaffordablehousing.org to be informed of meeting information.

Can't help with PIT planning? Watch your inbox for invitations to volunteer, spread the word, and assist in the PIT Count over the coming months!

Save the Date : TPCH to Host Community Dialogue and Learning Sessions on Race, Gender, and Economic Disparity

January 6 & 7, 2019

This January, TPCH will partner with Our Family Services' Center for Community Dialogue and Training and the National Association for Community Mediation to host a 2-day work session on conflict management and restorative justice practices as they relate to our work to address racial, gender, and economic disparity in housing and services for people experiencing homelessness.

This is an important next step in our current work to analyze and address disparities within our housing system and a fantastic opportunity for our coalition to build skills in conflict resolution, negotiation, and restorative justice practices that can be used in each of our organizations as well as in our collaborative activities as part of TPCH.  Please save the date and watch for more details in the coming months!

TPCH Training Survey

TPCH is planning our training calendar.  We need your input. 

Each year, TPCH is required to provide a number of trainings to meet federal requirements. In addition to those required trainings, many TPCH members have asked for more training opportunities over the course of the year.

To help us plan the training calendar for the coming year, please take a few minutes to complete our brief survey and let us know what types of trainings you would like to see and how you would like those trainings delivered (online, in-person, conference, etc.)
