The city announced that pledge Thursday afternoon — quick work after this week’s kick-off of Hamilton’s “20,000 Homes” campaign, an effort aiming to paint a picture of who in Hamilton is homeless and how is best to help. Volunteers surveyed more than 450 homeless individuals and families about where they sleep, their health status and other factors in their homelessness.
