✏️ The 2026 Point-in-Time (PIT) Count is here.
The PIT Count is a snapshot of individuals and families experiencing homelessness on a single night each year. It helps communities understand needs, track trends, and strengthen the systems that provide housing, prevention, and support services.
❗This data matters - it directly informs how resources like eviction prevention, job training, utility assistance, and financial coaching are delivered across our community.

A special message from our President and CEO, Carla Vargas Jasa:
“Best of luck to everyone playing! We don’t know who will win - but we know everyone at Valley of the Sun United Way is part of a winning team.”
Born to Paraguayan parents, raised in California, and playing soccer growing up, Carla's story is a reminder of how connected our communities, cultures, and experiences truly are.
