The task force will meet monthly and work to identify gaps in services, gather public feedback, review homelessness data and examine strategies that have been successful in other communities.
County officials said the group will develop recommendations for the Board of Commissioners focused on creating a more coordinated and streamlined approach to addressing homelessness in Gwinnett.
The task force’s recommendations will be presented to the Board after its review process.
