About the Lubbock Continuum of Care (CoC)

The Lubbock Continuum of Care (CoC) is a community-wide network of organizations, advocates, service providers, and volunteers dedicated to preventing and ending homelessness in Lubbock and surrounding areas. We believe that housing is a basic human right, and through collaboration, data-driven solutions, and compassionate outreach, we help individuals and families in crisis find stability, support, and a path to permanent housing.

Lubbock CoC - 2026 PIT Count Report

THANK YOU to everyone who made the Point-in-Time (PIT) Count possible!

29 volunteers, representing 14 plus agencies donated time for this critical one-day event on January 22, 2026. The PIT count is instrumental in helping Lubbock understand the unique needs of the unhoused in our community which helps drive and shape Lubbock's coordinated response.

Over 45 individuals attended the March CoC Member and Community Meeting in which PIT (Point in Time), HIC (Housing Inventory Count), SPM (Systems Performance Measures) and Lubbock's HRS (Homeless Response System) were highlighted. Did you know Lubbock's CoC is one of 12 programs in the state of Texas? We are super proud of all we have accomplished together and look forward to building and strengthening Lubbock's CoC and HRS!
