Vermont Homelessness Snapshot: Numbers Down In Chittenden County, Up Elsewhere

On Jan. 27 of this year, there were more than 1,500 homeless people living in Vermont. That annual snapshot is down slightly from last year, according to new numbers from the Vermont Coalition to End Homelessness and the Chittenden County Homeless Alliance. But that number doesn’t tell the whole story.

Sara Kobylenski, co-chair of the coalition, joined VPR to help unpack the statistics.  

Annie Russell was VPR's Deputy News Director. She came to VPR from NPR's Weekends on All Things Considered and WNYC's On The Media. She is a graduate of Columbia Journalism School.
Alex was a reporter and host of VPR's local All Things Considered. He was also the co-host and co-creator of the VPR program Brave Little State.
