Description
There is an elderly woman and small dog that are typically sitting outside of the office depot in this plaza. Her sign says she has cancer. I would appreciate it if someone could visit and offer her services.

Thank you for reporting this issue to us via SeeClickFix St. Pete. This report has been forwarded to the Office of Veteran, Social & Homeless Services. While Homelessness is not illegal, the City addresses homelessness and related social issues City-wide by utilizing a two-tiered philosophy of service: Referral followed by enforcement.
Our Police Department has a Street Outreach Team (PATH) that actively canvasses areas where the activities of the homeless are noticed, and they will continue doing so to ensure the safety of all citizens. Police Assisting the Homeless (PATH) non-emergency Homeless Hotline voicemail can be reached at 727-551-3783.
Please immediately report any criminal activity or safety concerns to the SPPD directly by calling 727-893-7780 if not an emergency or 911 if an emergency. Thank you.
We work closely with various City departments and local social service providers to address issues faced by our homeless population, and we also work with neighborhood associations to address the concerns they have as well. Information may be found on this page of the StPete.org website:

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. On 03/28/24, our Police Assisting The Homeless (PATH) team went out to this area to see if they could assist anyone they came into contact with unfortunately, did not locate anyone. Our Street Outreach specialist went out that afternoon and was able to locate a few unhoused individuals including an elder woman with a small dog. Services were offered to each unhoused individual which some accepted and some did not. Our Street Outreach and PATH officers are in this area daily and will continue to monitor and offer assistance to anyone they come into contact with as well as enforce local ordinances. Thank you again for reporting this to us.
