Overview• The City of Las Vegas (the “City”) takes
the issue of homelessness very seriously and is actively engaged in both prevention and social assistance programs. That said, one of the biggest obstacles as it relates to homelessness is the difficulty of obtaining the information from the demographic.
• Applied Analysis and Caridad Inc. were jointly retained by the City to survey street homeless in the area to obtain information about the challenges this group faces.
• This summary presentation-report highlights the results of over 400 one-on-one interviews as well as the key findings of our review and analysis.
• Although a number of steps were taken before, during and after the survey process to limit research bias and to ensure the meaningfulness of the results generated, any primary research project of this nature will have some limitations. These limitations should be considered in the evaluation of the findings provided herein.
