This document reports the findings of the census of the homeless population of Nanaimo, British Columbia, undertaken by the Working Group on Homelessness (WGH) during July 2006. Previous censuses in April and November of 2005 detected significant pattern shifts between those two counts. Now the group wished to see if and how the numbers would be different during the summer. Rumors and anecdotal reports were suggesting that a “summer influx” of homeless persons to Nanaimo had taken place; investigating that hypothesis provided another reason for the count.
