HARRIS COUNTY, Texas — One of the at-risk populations for COVID-19 is those that don’t have a home. But the the Harris County Sheriff’s Office has a outreach homeless program out looking for the homeless population to provide them they help they need.

“We are trying to educate them. They don’t have access to television. They don’t have access to seeing all the things they have going on,” said Greg Temple, Harris County Sheriff’s deputy.

During these critical times, deputies want to make sure all homeless not only stay informed, but stay safe. They’re handing out COVID-19 packets with hygiene essentials, food, water, a mask and hand sanitizer. Most importantly, they each get a COVID-19  sheet with vital information.
