The list is expected to improve services to homeless people and create a better understanding of their needs.

San Diego County is a step closer to creating a list that will name all homeless people in the area following the Board of Supervisors’ agreement to fund it Tuesday.

On Tuesday, the board approved a contract with the Regional Task Force on Homelessness for $100,000 over the next two years to create the list. The update did not list which cities participated, but the plan as originally suggested by Anglea was to begin with a pilot of just a few communities before expanding it countywide in a year or 18 months.

In another example, multiple jurisdiction could work together to address specific sub-populations, such as seniors or people with serious mental illnesses in their area, to pool resources to address their unique needs.
