cleaning up trash from La Ladera park. The scouts were given a special thanks from the Park
Rangers and everyone recived an honorary Jr. Park Ranger badge for their demonstration of
service to thier community. We contiue to have our park and trail adoptees helping out at AMR
Sports Park as well as Paloma Wash Trail.
Riverside County Point in Time Count
The official Point in Time Count (PIT) numbers came in last month, and Menifee has seen a
reduction from 2018 to 2019! Additionally, we are the second lowest in the Region (tied with
Murrieta and trailing only Wildomar). We have also suceeded in reducing our reported chronic
homeless population in half from 2018. While the PIT numbers are only a small sampling of the
overall picture of homelessness these numbers help to reflct the ongoing sucess of the Menifee
Homeless Task Force and our partners.
