ATTLEBORO -- The Greater Attleboro/Taunton Coalition on Homelessness is seeking volunteers to help with its annual count of the homeless later this month.
The count, which is required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to qualify for federal grants, will be conducted on Jan. 26.
The census will cover 10 cities and towns in Bristol County and will include people living outdoors or in emergency shelters, transitional housing or permanent supported housing.
