HMIS
The Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) is a secure database used by homeless service providers to collect and manage information about the people they serve. It helps agencies coordinate care, track services and housing outcomes, and ensure individuals and families receive the support they need.
By using HMIS, communities can better understand local needs, improve service delivery, and report accurate data to funders such as the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

Heart to Home Coordinated Entry
Coordinated Entry is how our community prioritizes access to housing and services. Through Heart to Home, individuals are assessed and prioritized so those with the greatest needs can be matched to available housing and support.
