All components of the project were conducted according to the requirements and standards of practice outlined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). * The project included a comprehensive enumeration, or Point-in-Time (PIT) Count, and an in depth survey of the homeless population in Clark County, Nevada (hereafter referred to as Southern Nevada). Southern Nevada and its community partners carried out this census and survey in order to obtain the data necessary to evaluate the nature and scope of homelessness in Southern Nevada. The data collected in this study was analyzed and used to populate the HUD Housing Inventory Count (HIC) and the PIT reports. The results of this research will assist service providers, policy makers, and funders, as well as local, state, and national government entities, with funding and creating effective and efficient services and programs for those who are homeless in Southern Nevada. 2019 SOUTHERN NEVADA HOMELESS CENSUS & SURVEY COMPREHENSIVE REPORT 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The PIT Count is an enumeration of both sheltered and unsheltered homeless populations, conducted annually over the course of one night during the last 10 days of January, and is required of all CoCs per the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). PIT Counts are conducted by CoCs nationwide to provide unduplicated counts and statistically reliable estimates of homeless persons in sheltered and unsheltered locations in a single night. The 2019 Southern Nevada Homeless PIT Count identified 5,530 homeless persons in Southern Nevada. Of these persons, 40.01% (2,213 persons) were sheltered and 59.98% (3,317 persons) were unsheltered. 2019 Homeless Census & Survey: Summary of Findings The 2019 Southern Nevada PIT Count indicates that between 2018 and 2019, the total number of persons experiencing homelessness decreased from 6,083 to 5,530, respectively. The number of unsheltered homeless persons decreased from 3,884 to 3,317 respectively during this time period.

NV The 2019 annual estimate for the number of homeless people in Southern Nevada is 14,114. This represents a 15.19% decrease (2,527 persons) from the 2018 annual estimate of 16,641 persons. It’s important to note that the HUD-approved method for determining annual estimates factors in the length of time homeless to determine annual inflow. Due to this methodology, it’s entirely possible for the annual estimate to be lower than in previous years, while sections of the PIT total may be greater. Three factors are used to determine the annual estimate: 1. A = The point-in-time enumeration of currently homeless people (found in the unsheltered and sheltered count). 2. B = The number of currently homeless people who have experienced homeless within the last 7 days. 3. C = The proportion of currently homeless people who have experienced a previous homeless episode within the past 12 months. The equation for calculating the annual estimate is: A+[(Bx51)x(1-C)] = Annual estimate 2019 SOUTHERN NEVADA HOMELESS CENSUS & SURVEY COMPREHENSIVE REPORT 3 Conditions: Sheltered/Unsheltered 59.98% of homeless persons in Southern Nevada were unsheltered. Between 2018 and 2019, unsheltered homelessness decreased by 17.09% (567 persons). When comparing the unsheltered totals to the overall homeless total relative to their year, there was a 3.9% decrease since 2018. In 2018, unsheltered homeless represented 63.85% of the entire homeless population (3,884 persons). In 2019, unsheltered homeless represented 59.98% of the entire homeless population (3,317 persons). 40.01% of the persons enumerated in the PIT Count were in sheltered facilities. Between 2018 and 2019, sheltered homelessness increased by 00.63% (14 persons). In Southern Nevada, in the early morning of January, 23, 2019, 1,670 persons were in emergency shelters, 524 persons were in transitional housing, and 19 persons were in safe haven. Survey Demographics The majority of homeless individuals surveyed in Southern Nevada identified as White/Caucasian, and were of male gender.

Age In 2019, 6.8% of respondents were between the ages of 18 and 24. This represents a 4,8% increase from the number of homeless persons in this category in 2019 (2.0%). Race and Ethnicity .

Ryan, Area Specialist, Natural Resources, University of Nevada Cooperative Extension Updated from G. Mitchell, M.L. Robinson, D.B. Hardenbrook and E.L. Sellars. 1998. What’s the Buzz About Nevada’s Venomous Reptiles? University of Nevada Cooperative Extension—Nevada Department of Wildlife Partnership Publication. FS-98-35. SP 07-07 (Replaces FS-98-35) NEVADA’S REPTILES Approximately 52 species of snakes and lizards share the Nevada landscape with us. Of these, only 12 are considered venomous. Only 6 can be dangerous to people and pets. Encountering them is uncommon because of their body camouflage and secretive nature, which are their first defenses in evading predators. Consider yourself fortunate if you do see one! As with all wildlife, treat venomous reptiles with respect. Reptiles are ectothermic, meaning their body temperature increases or decreases in response to the surrounding environment. They are most active in the spring, summer and early fall when it’s comfortable, short sleeve weather for us. Reptiles usually hibernate, or brumate, in winter in response to colder temperatures. During high summer temperatures in the Mojave Desert, reptiles may spend time underground in order to maintain vital body temperatures. In most cases*, collecting Nevada’s native reptiles is not allowed without the appropriate permit, which is issued by the Nevada Department of Wildlife.
