In Thurston County, data is more than numbers; it’s the key to transforming the community’s approach to homelessness.
At one time, duplicate records across different service providers complicated efforts to serve people experiencing homelessness. Now, the community has a real-time, comprehensive data source for all single adults experiencing homelessness.
As Jess Olson, former Homeless Program Specialist with Thurston County Public Health and Social Services, noted, “Quality data has clarified the work…. We now have the ability to measure progress in a meaningful way.”
