"We are just under one week away from PIT 2023 and I can't wait to watch our amazing group of volunteers jump into action." Ms. J. White, SETCH Coordinator

Port Arthur volunteers who wish to be a part of this year's Point-in-Time (PIT) count of the area's homeless individuals and families, please follow the instructions below: 

Remember that there are 3 steps to becoming a PIT Day volunteer. 

-Register using our Volunteer Sign-Up website. You will be able to select your geographic area, your desired time slot, and your desired role.

-Complete one volunteer training session. You can complete the Online Volunteer Training  by Tuesday, January 24th. The training is broken into modules and you should be able to complete it in about one hour. Or, you can complete the face-to-face version on Saturday, January 21st beginning at 10:00 a.m. CT at Legacy CDC, Port Arthur, 3025 Plaza Cir, Port Arthur, TX 77642.
