Press Release: Before the Count

We recommend that communities announce their PiT Count as early as possible. The following resource is a sample press release that explains the local and national benefits of PiT Counts. Note: the sample press release is designed for communities that are conducting a count for the first time. Communities that have previously conducted counts should include details about their past results. Refer to Point-in-Time Count Toolkit for more information about media engagement.
