The California System Performance Measures (CA SPMs) are a series of metrics developed by the California Interagency Council on Homelessness (Cal ICH), pursuant to Health and Safety Code §50220.7, that help the state and local jurisdictions assess their progress toward preventing, reducing, and ending homelessness. All measures except for Measure 1b are generated using data from the state’s Homelessness Data Integration System. Measure 1b and Point in Time (PIT) Count data are sourced from each Continuum of Care’s PIT Count. Measure 1b and PIT Count data are not shown for 2021 because of irregularities in that year’s counts. For more information about the measures and how they are calculated, please see the California System Performance Measures Guide and Glossary: https://www.bcsh.ca.gov/calich/documents/california_system_performance_measures_guide.pdf
