Interfaith Prayer Service on Zoom, Tues, April 9th at 12:15 PM for the 38 People "Without Fixed Abode" who died in March 2024 in OC
All are invited to a Zoom Interfaith Memorial Prayer Service on Tuesday, April 9th at 12:15 PM for the 33 people who died "Without Fixed Abode" in OC in March, 2024 as well as the 1 other who died in January, but whose death was recorded only now. Zoom info below. The death count for the first three months of the year stands at 120, last year (2023) it stood at 151, two years ago (2022) it was 123. So it remains an improvement over last year. However, in the years prior, the death rate was significantly lower still 100 for 2021, 66 for 2020, 52 for 2019. During the same period of time, by the federally mandated PIT counts, the number of people who found themselves homeless was about the same or higher than it is now. So despite declining from last year, the death rate among those who find themselves homeless in OC remains higher than it was in the recent past. And so we pray...
