The director of Lexington’s Office of Homelessness Prevention and Intervention is hoping to see new measures implemented to gauge the size of those needing services. Jeff Herron gave an annual report to Council members last week. Herron said one change would be to expand out in the field counting.
“We are looking to the future to try to implement more than one point in time count throughout the calendar year. It’s something that we didn’t have the ability to get off the ground this year. When we did that count in January we operated with over 150 volunteers,” said Herron.
