Acknowledgements This is the tenth Homeless Point‐in‐Time study conducted by The Metropolitan Denver Homeless Initiative (MDHI) since 1998. Linda Barringer and Pat Lease, Co‐Chairs of MDHI’s Research Committee, supervised the study. The Denver Department of Human Services and Broomfield Department of Human Services contributed funding for this project. MDHI identified people in each jurisdiction to help coordinate and to ensure that all providers within their jurisdiction were participating, attending training, and distributing and collecting survey forms. The outstanding participation by all area providers in the 2011 survey was a direct result of the coordinated efforts of the following point persons: Adams County Alicia Aguilar & Isabel Traver Arapahoe County Signy Mikita, Josh Meis, Keith Singer, Cara Tejada Aurora Sharon Duwaik Boulder County Leslie Gibson & Agatha Moya City and County of Broomfield Sharon Farrell & Jan Hamilton City and County of Denver Sam Bowersox‐Daly and Amber Callender Peter Ericson & Valerie Robson Douglas County Jefferson County Linda Barringer, Jennifer Murphy, Rick Roberts Domestic Violence Providers Wendy Oldenbrook Outreach Randle Loeb Veterans Pat Lease Youth Nicole Sherwood A special acknowledgement is made to Desta Taye‐Channell with Mile High United Way who assisted with volunteer recruitment for the Point in Time count. A special thank you to Pat Lease for her many years of supervision, input and guidance in producing the Point‐In‐Time report. This study could not have been completed without the support and dedication of the many homeless service providers throughout the Denver Metropolitan area.

A special note of thanks goes to the hard working individuals who strive to provide a decent and safe place for homeless people to live. Finally, this report would not have been possible without the cooperation of the survey respondents who completed surveys and provided us with confidential information about their experiences and reasons for homelessness. Collectively, these survey responses provide all of us with a better understanding of the local magnitude of homelessness and the work that lies ahead of us to ensure that all people in our community have a safe and decent place to call home.

majority of households with children (65.9%) spent Monday night in counties other than Denver. On Monday night, all homeless people were predominantly staying temporarily with family or friends (30.9), in transitional housing (23.5%) or in an emergency shelter (17.4%). Nature of Homelessness For the purpose of this study, people were considered “newly homeless” if they had been homeless for less than one year and this was their first episode of homelessness. On January 24, 2011, nearly one in four (23.7%) or 2,402 people, were considered newly homeless. Of the newly homeless, fully two‐thirds (66.6%) were in households with children. New this year, HUD includes families in its definition of chronically homeless. There are 466 chronically homeless respondents who meet HUD’s definition. Slightly more than three‐ quarters (76.4%) are male. Chronically Homeless by Family Type – Respondents

Homeless in Metropolitan Denver Point‐In‐Time Study, 2011

Ending homelessness must begin with the understanding that people who are or have been homeless are our neighbors and members of our community. ‐‐National Coalition for the Homeless On Monday night, January 24, 2011, there were an estimated 11,377 homeless men, women, and children in Metropolitan Denver. I. INTRODUCTION With the help of volunteers, service providers, staff, and outreach workers, the Metropolitan Denver Homeless Initiative (MDHI) conducted a point‐in‐time (PIT) study of homeless persons in the seven‐county Denver metropolitan area. A point‐in‐time count provides a snapshot of homelessness by counting those who are homeless at a particular time. However, surveyors can easily “miss” homeless individuals and families. The Metropolitan Denver Homeless Initiative (MDHI) is a coalition working with homeless assistance agencies in the seven‐county Denver metropolitan area to coordinate the delivery of housing and services to homeless families, individuals, youth and persons with disabilities. MDHI seeks to provide the leadership, support and structure necessary to develop and sustain a comprehensive system of housing and services for those experiencing homelessness. Referred to as the Continuum of Care, this system encompasses Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Broomfield, Denver, Douglas and Jefferson Counties. With emphasis on prevention, MDHI works to unite housing and service providers, neighborhoods, funders, business and non‐profit organizations, government agencies and other groups and individuals across the metropolitan area in an ongoing effort to break the cycle of homelessness and help homeless persons achieve and maintain maximum self‐sufficiency. Designing, implementing and maintaining a Continuum of Care homeless service delivery system requires the on‐going collection and analysis of data on the number, location and demographic characteristics of homeless persons who need access to emergency shelter, supportive housing, permanent housing and specialized services. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the primary source of federal funding for housing support for homeless people, requires that each Continuum of Care across the country conduct a “point‐in‐time” survey every two years during the month of January. HUD, MDHI, local

governments and service providers use the information collected by the point‐in‐time survey to assess, project and plan strategies and services to eliminate homelessness. MDHI defines homelessness as:  Sleeping in places not meant for human habitation, such as cars, parks, sidewalks, or abandoned or condemned buildings;  Sleeping in an emergency shelter;  Spending a short time (30 consecutive days or less) in a hospital or other institution, but ordinarily sleeping in the types of places mentioned above;  Living in transitional/supportive housing but having come from streets or emergency shelters;  Staying temporarily with family or friends while looking for a permanent place to live;  Staying temporarily in a hotel/motel while looking for shelter or housing;  Being evicted within a week from a private dwelling unit and having no subsequent residence identified and lacking the resources and support networks needed to obtain access to housing; or,  Being discharged from an institution within seven days and having no subsequent residence identified and lacking the resources and support networks needed to obtain access to housing.

II. UNDERSTANDING THE DATA Undercounting There is no disagreement that it is difficult to count homeless people. The one consistent finding in all the research on homelessness is that surveys undercount homeless populations. It is easy to “miss” homeless individuals and families ‐‐ they might not receive services at the agencies where homeless persons are counted on the night of the PIT, or if they do frequent a particular agency, they might not be there during the count. People enter and leave homelessness frequently and may become homeless shortly after the point‐in‐time study. The comprehensiveness of a sheltered homeless count is entirely dependent upon the level of participation of agencies and organizations that serve homeless individuals and families. Unsheltered homeless people are particularly difficult to count. By definition, they are not in places where they can easily be counted, such as transitional housing and homeless shelters.1 Many homeless people are not counted because they are not in places where they can be found, much less where they have the opportunity to complete a survey, such as those living in automobiles and other kinds of crude and temporary housing. Some groups may be underrepresented among service users, including youth, recently homeless persons, and persons who are doubled up with friends and family.2 Others are homeless due to domestic violence and, because of confidentiality concerns, do not complete surveys. Still other homeless people are likely afraid of being counted, such as undocumented persons. Submitted Surveys Table 1 describes the number of point‐in‐time surveys collected by agency staff and volunteers and the number of surveys removed from the final database. Table 1.

Variables Some variables are reported only for respondents and others for both respondents and all homeless. For all homeless people, the data represent respondents and the family members who are with them. Table 2 describes which variables from the survey are reported for respondents, for all homeless and for both. Table 2.

MDHI’s 2011 point‐in‐time homeless count recruited as many service providers, volunteers and outreach workers as possible, and they assisted homeless (or assumed homeless) individuals to complete a two‐sided survey in order to facilitate survey distribution and administration. They used an extensive system of trained agency staff and volunteers to collect the survey data in order to keep the cost of the point‐in‐time count affordable. 3

Respondents were asked, “Do you or any adult in your household (eighteen or older) have any of the following disabling conditions”? In prior years, respondents were asked to report their own disabling conditions only.

III. FINDINGS Some survey respondents did not answer every question. Therefore, the percentages reported in each sub‐section of the report and in individual tables and graphs represent only those people who answered the particular question, not the total number of respondents. In other words, unless otherwise noted, the percentages do not include “missing” responses. Additionally, when adding up numbers in various categories, the number will not always equal the number of “respondents” or “all homeless” due to survey questions that were not answered. The findings are reported for respondents and all homeless. Respondents are those individuals who completed the survey. The “all homeless” category is the sum of respondents and the homeless family members with them. The findings are reported in one or both of these two categories, depending on which category is most useful and informative and on whether the variable logically can be imputed to all homeless. For example, military status can be reported for respondents only, while it makes sense to report where people spent Monday night for all homeless. Total Estimated Homeless Persons Some respondents who identified themselves as having children, either as part of a couple or as a single parent, did not document these family members when completing their survey. Other respondents reported they were part of a couple without children but did not document their spouse or partner. The number of persons who were not included by respondents is estimated at 1,226.4 This estimate was added to the total homeless estimate, but was not included in the analyses of all homeless. The total homeless count, including the estimate of unreported family members, is shown in Table 3 below. Table 3. Total Homeless Including Counts and Estimates SURVEY DATA Respondents Family members Total SURVEY All Homeless Additional family members not fully identified TOTAL HOMELESS ESTIMATE

For each family type, the researchers calculated the average number of family members for respondents who reported data for themselves and family members. The researchers applied the average number of family members – minus the respondent ‐‐ for each given family type to respondents who did not document family members. The estimates were then summed across family types.

DEMOGRAPHICS 1. Family Type The family type identified by the person who completed the survey reflects how they portray themselves. People who identified themselves as single or as part of a couple without children are grouped as “Households without Children.” People who identified themselves as a single parent with children or as part of a couple with children are categorized as “Households with Children.”5 Family type is reported for respondents and for all homeless, while households with and without children is reported only for all homeless. Table 4 describes respondents by family type and Table 5 shows the percentage of all homeless people by family type.6 Table 4.

HOUSING AND RISK FACTORS FOR HOMELESSNESS 5. Reasons for Homelessness Respondents were given a list of possible reasons for their homelessness and asked to indicate “all that apply.” Overall, loss of a job was the most common reason given, followed by housing costs, relationship or family breakup, substance abuse and eviction or foreclosure. Table 7. Reasons for Homelessness Lost job/can’t find work Housing costs too high Relationship or family break‐up/death in the family Substance abuse Eviction/foreclosure Mental illness, emotional problems Medical problems including physical, dev disability Abuse or violence in home Have work but wages too low Discharged from jail, prison, halfway house Utility costs too high Runaway/discharged from foster care Sexual orientation Other reason

Survey respondents wrote in “other” reasons for their current episode of homelessness. The most common “other” reason for homelessness was that the respondent recently moved to the Metro area. Other common reasons were various problems with government benefits: respondents had lost their benefits, were waiting for benefits, could not get benefits or reported that their benefit allocation was not enough money to live on. Additional reasons for homelessness were landlord problems, bad credit, dangerous or unhealthy living conditions (overcrowding, bed bugs, building unsafe or not up to code), immigration issues including deportation, child support or alimony problems, legal issues, pregnancy, or respondents simply reported having “no money.” There are differences between households with and without children in their reasons for homelessness, some more striking than others. Table 8 compares the five most frequently reported reasons overall by households with and without children.

6. Disabling Conditions HUD requires that the point‐in‐time survey include questions asking respondents to identify if, at the time of the survey, they had any of the following disabling conditions – serious mental illness, a serious medical condition, chronic substance abuse issues, a developmental disability, or HIV/AIDS. Nearly half (44.5%) respondents reported that they or some adult in their household had at least one disabling condition including some “other” disabling condition. While almost one‐third (30.2%) reported only one disabling condition, nearly one‐in‐eight (12.3%) reported that adults in their household had two or more disabling conditions. The largest group of respondents indicated that they experienced serious medical or physical conditions or a serious mental illness, followed closely by substance abuse. Figure 3.

Military Service, Foster Care, Work Respondents were asked, “Have you served in the U.S. Armed Forces or were you activated, into active duty, as a member of the National Guard or as a reservist?” They also were asked if they had ever been in foster care, and if so, if they had aged out of foster care in the past six months. Additionally, they were asked if in the past month they or anyone else in their household had received any money from working. Military Service Slightly more than one in ten respondents (11.7%) served in the military. Of those veterans, 11.3 percent were unsheltered on Monday night. Foster Care Similarly, slightly more than one in ten respondents (11.7%) said they had ever been in foster care, and of those, 15.1 percent reported they had aged out of foster care at some time in the last six months. Work Nearly one‐third (30.8%) of respondents reported they or anyone else in their household had worked in the past month. Substantially more respondents in households with children (41.9%) reported having received money from working in the past month than respondents in households without children (23.8%). 8. Government Benefits Respondents were asked to indicate all of the government benefits that anyone in their household received. The majority (58.4%) reported that their household received some type of government benefit. Of those receiving benefits, over half (54.3%) were receiving one benefit and nearly half (45.6%) were receiving two or more government benefits. More households with children were receiving government benefits (67.0%) than households without children (52.7%).

NATURE OF HOMELESSNESS 9. Duration and Episodes of Homelessness Duration of homelessness refers to how long a particular episode of homelessness has lasted. Number of episodes refers to the number of separate times a household has experienced homelessness, regardless of how long each of the episodes lasted. Duration Table 9.

10. Chronically Homeless Individuals HUD Definitions and Criteria Historically, HUD has defined chronic homelessness as:  Single persons living alone, and  Having a chronic debilitating condition, and  Sleeping in a place not meant for human habitation and/or in an emergency homeless shelter, and  Having been homeless continually for one year or more OR having four or more episodes of homelessness in three or more years. HUD defines a disabling condition as “a diagnosable substance abuse disorder, serious mental illness, developmental disability or chronic physical illness or disability.” A disabling condition limits an individual’s ability to work or perform activities of daily living. New this year, HUD includes families in its definition of chronically homeless, albeit without clear criteria for counting these individuals and families. HUD issued the following guidelines regarding “Chronically Homeless Person or Family”: An unaccompanied homeless individual (18 or older) with a disabling condition or a family with at least one adult member (18 or older) who has a disabling condition who has either been continuously homeless for a year or more OR has had at least four episodes of homelessness in the past three years. This means that CoCs need to collect four pieces of data to meet HUD requirements: 1. Number of sheltered chronically homeless individuals living in emergency shelter or safe havens. 2. Number of unsheltered chronically homeless individuals living in a place not meant for human habitation (e.g. living on the street). 3. Number of sheltered chronically homeless families living in emergency shelter or safe havens. 4. Number of unsheltered chronically homeless families living in a place not meant for human habitation (e.g. living on the street). The above criteria indicate that Continuums of Care (CoCs) must determine the number of chronically homeless single individuals and the number of chronically homeless family units. However, in a subsequent publication, HUD directed that:

Metropolitan Denver Homeless Initiative

Homeless in Metropolitan Denver Point‐In‐Time Study, 2011

CoCs should collect and report the total number of persons in chronically homeless families to include both the adult members who are chronically homeless and family members who are with them, either sheltered or unsheltered. Conversely, this second set of criteria indicates that HUD requires CoCs to report the number of respondents and their family members who are chronically homeless, or as designated in this report, All Homeless. HUD was contacted to clarify the necessary data that CoCs should collect and report for their chronically homeless populations, but further clarification was unavailable. This report therefore includes the following descriptions of the chronically homeless:  Number of chronically homeless single individuals  Number of chronically homeless family units  Number of chronically homeless ‐‐ All Homeless persons8 Finally, based on HUD criteria, unaccompanied homeless children under the age of 18 are not counted as chronically homeless individuals. In this study, six respondents were younger than 18 and identified as chronically homeless, but were not included in the chronically homeless calculations. Table 13 shows chronically homeless respondents (whether single individuals or part of a family) by age categories, although the six teens were not included in subsequent reporting of chronically homeless.

Chronically Homeless Respondents There are a total of 466 chronically homeless respondents who meet HUD’s definition. Slightly more than three‐quarters (76.4%) are male. Chronically Homeless Single Individuals and Families Over three quarters (77.9%) or 363 of chronically homeless respondents are single individuals. Families ‐‐ respondents who are not single individuals ‐‐ comprise more than one‐fifth (22.1%) of the chronically homeless population. Table 14.

There are 363 chronically homeless persons whose family type is identified as ‘single’; however, considering all homeless persons, there are 393 chronically homeless persons in this category. This is due to some single respondents having various family members with them, such as a sibling or an adult respondent with a parent.

Unsheltered Of all homeless people, 5.1 percent or 411 people were unsheltered (living on the street, under a bridge, in an abandoned or public building, in a car, camping out, etc.) on the night of January 24.10 Of those who were unsheltered, over three‐quarters (77.2%) were living in households without children, and 22.8 percent had children with them. 13. Newly Homeless For the purpose of this study, people were considered “newly homeless” if they had been homeless for less than one year and this was their first episode of homelessness. On January 24, 2011, nearly one in four (23.7%) or 2,402 people, were considered newly homeless. Of the newly homeless, fully two‐thirds (66.6%) were in households with children. 10

This percentage is slightly lower than the 5.2 percent of all homeless who were unsheltered in Table 17 above. The difference is because Table 17 is based only on people who reported where they spent Monday night. The 5.1 percent is based on all homeless, including those who did not indicate where they spent Monday night.

The majority of households without children (55.6%) indicated that they spent that night in Denver. Conversely, the majority of households with children (65.9%) spent Monday night in counties other than Denver. Table 19 shows the percentage of all homeless persons in households with children in each of the seven Metro counties. A majority of homeless persons in every county except Douglas County is part of a household with children. Table 19.

15. Last Permanent Residence Respondents were asked to indicate the county where they last lived before they became homeless. The largest single percentage (37.9%) of respondents indicated their last permanent residence was in Denver City and County, although a combined 44.7 percent were from one of the Metro counties other than Denver. One in eight (12.8%) homeless respondents were from out of state, and 4.6 percent were from a Colorado county other than one of the seven Metro counties in this study. Table 21 compares the county where respondents spent the night of Monday, January 24 and the county where respondents had their last permanent residence. For example, out of 913 respondents who spent Monday night in Boulder and answered the question about their last permanent residence, 682 said that Boulder was their last permanent residence, 118 were from out of state, and 41 were from a Colorado county other than one of the Metro counties in this study. The number of respondents in the table reflects the number of respondents who provided information about both where they spent Monday night and the county where they last had a permanent residence.

Differences in totals between Tables 21 and 22 are due to missing responses. The proportion of respondents with and without children who spent Monday night in a county different from their last permanent residence varies across counties. The key messages from Table 22 are 1) on average, between one‐quarter and one‐third of respondents sleeping in a new Metro area county are newly homeless; and 2) the highest proportion of chronically homeless respondents spending Monday night in a county not reported as their last permanent residence are from out of state.

Summary Homelessness continues to be a critical issue in Metro Denver. More than 11,000 people, many of them children, lack a permanent home on any given night. The Point‐In‐Time study shows that persons living in households with children continue to account for the majority of homeless persons in Metro Denver. The number of homeless women is approaching that of homeless men, primarily because of the large number of single parents and couples with children. More than one‐quarter of single homeless persons, however, are now female. Minorities are over‐represented among the homeless population compared to general population estimates. The great majority of all homeless people spent Monday night staying temporarily with family members or friends, in time‐limited transitional housing or in an emergency shelter (not including a domestic violence shelter). Persons in households with children were substantially more likely to stay with family or friends or in transitional housing, while persons in households without children were more likely to have spent Monday night in an emergency shelter. One in twenty homeless people were unsheltered. There are fewer newly homeless than in the past couple of years. It may be that people are experiencing homelessness for longer periods of time due to the economy. Nevertheless, almost one‐quarter of all homeless are newly homeless, and fully two‐thirds of newly homeless persons are in households with children. The change in HUD’s definition of chronically homeless is a step forward in accurately defining and reporting on persons experiencing chronic homelessness. Service providers have long been aware that families as well as single individuals face the catastrophic problems associated with being chronically homeless. Of all chronically homeless persons, one in five are in households with children. The three most frequently reported reasons for respondents’ current spell of homelessness are unemployment, followed by housing costs and relationship or family break‐up. A recent Denver Post article reported that Colorado mirrors the nation in the record growth of low‐ income families who pay more than half of their monthly income for rent. The vacancy rate in affordable housing rentals is dropping, incomes are dropping, and rents are increasing.12 Given the uncertainty surrounding the economic recovery and the fact that homelessness affects so many families and children, it is more critical than ever that we work together to provide services and programs to reduce homelessness in Metropolitan Denver. 12

V. METHODOLOGY MDHI collected data in the last week in January, referencing the point‐in‐time as the night of Monday, January 24, 2011. Survey Instrument The survey instrument was developed by the Metropolitan Denver Homeless Initiative (MDHI). The survey was revised based on input from MDHI Board members and on changes in HUD definitions. For example, MDHI revised how respondents were asked about their military service to reflect HUD’s guidelines. Data Entry/Cleaning A professional data entry firm entered the survey data. The researchers performed numerous procedures to identify data entry and logic errors. For example, the researchers ran frequencies on all variables to check for out of range / incorrect values; coded and cleaned all open‐ended responses; did countless logic checks comparing “Family Type” and family member data; and performed many additional logic checks on all data points. The researchers paid particular attention to identifying family type and households with and without children. Although evidence of children in a household often was not thoroughly or consistently documented, if there was solid evidence that the respondent had any children under 18 years of age, the household was identified as a household with children. Respondents age 17 or under were automatically classified as a household with children. The number of homeless persons in a household could be counted if the respondent: 1) entered the number of people in the household, and 2) identified the family members who were with them on Monday night. In many cases, responses to these questions were inconsistent; handling these cases required extensive data examination and cleaning. The researchers also did additional data cleaning, for example, removing friends reported by respondents. The study’s methodology assumes that “friends” complete their own surveys, while the respondent reports on family members. Criteria for Eliminating Not Homeless The researchers established clearly defined, objective criteria to identify homelessness. Determining whether a respondent was homeless initially depended on where he or she spent the PIT night. As needed, other questions were included in the decision process. Many surveys had inconsistent responses. In these situations, the researchers examined responses indicating housing status and developed additional criteria to sort respondents consistently.

Metropolitan Denver Homeless Initiative

Homeless in Metropolitan Denver Point‐In‐Time Study, 2011

Duplicates The PIT survey was conducted over a 24‐hour period in order to reduce the number of duplicate surveys. However, duplicates are inevitable. Several steps were taken to address this issue:  Although agency staff, volunteers and homeless respondents were instructed to complete a survey for every homeless individual or family, only one survey was counted for each household.  Agency staff and volunteers were trained regarding the critical nature of obtaining the identifying information at the top of the survey form. A unique identification number was created for each respondent. This identification number consisted of first initial, middle initial, first three letters of last name and month respondent was born, as well as age and gender. The researchers examined the survey instruments for respondents with identical identification numbers and omitted duplicates. New in 2011  If the survey was missing data to indicate homelessness, and the agency submitting the survey only serves homeless persons, the respondent was identified as homeless.  If the respondent spent Monday night in permanent supportive housing and reported that he or she was going to be evicted in seven days, the respondents was identified as homeless – in other words, permanent supportive housing was treated similarly to living in Section 8 housing or in the respondent’s own apartment or house.  If the respondent reported having children in the table identifying household members but did not state their children’s ages, and the respondent was age 32 or younger, the respondent was counted as having a child under 18.
