Last updated on Thursday, January 22, 2015

(UNDATEDX) - Today, Region 11 Planning Council will conduct the annual Point in Time (homeless count) required by the state.

This one day event gives officials a snapshot of the number of homeless in the area. The count is done to capture where individuals spent last night (Wednesday).

Region 11 includes Bartholomew, Brown, Decatur, Jackson, Jennings, Johnson and Shelby Counties.

Sites have been set up in each county for homeless to conduct the survey and receive care packages.
