The state of South Carolina is divided into four Continuums of Care. A Continuum of Care (CoC) is a regional planning body that coordinates housing and services funding families and individuals experiencing homeless. These CoCs are also responsible for conducting and reporting annual Point-in-Time counts of the homeless population in the geographic area they serve. These regions are illustrated on the map on this page.
If you wish to volunteer for the Point in Time Count, click on your county below to contact the organization conducting the count in your area.
