The Los Angeles County’s Homelessness Services and Housing Department are prepared to take over the annual homeless count and federal grant responsibilities. The Los Angeles Homeless Service Authority, which is a joint organization between the county and the city of L.A., previously managed these duties. Benjamin Henwood, the director of the USC Center for Homelessness, Housing and Health Equity Research, shared his insight on the impact of the transfer.
