  • The First Step

    Contact an Access Point and ask for a Coordinated Entry assessment. After the assessment, you will be entered into a “Prioritization Pool.”

  • What to Expect

    The Prioritization Pool gives housing referrals to the most vulnerable first. This means that the amount of time that individuals wait for a referral varies from person to person.

  • Keep in Touch

    It is important to answer phone calls and stay in touch with Access Points while waiting for a housing referral. Checking in regularly is highly recommended during this process.

Updates are important.

Are you still waiting on a housing referral? Make sure your Coordinated Entry Assessment is up-to-date!

How does Coordinated Entry work?

Once clients complete or update an assessment, they are placed on a prioritization list.

This helps identify which clients will best fit housing program vacancies, and the most vulnerable participants can be served with the most appropriate intervention versus a “first come, first served” approach.

Different housing definitions:

Rapid Rehousing
Rapid re-housing provides short-term rental assistance and services. The goals are to help people obtain housing quickly, increase self-sufficiency, and stay housed.

Stable Housing
Stable housing, as quickly as possible, is the goal for everyone experiencing homelessness or at risk of becoming homeless. Hundreds more units are needed, along with consistent services to maintain stability.

Permanent Supportive Housing
Combines low-barrier affordable housing, health care, and supportive services for highly vulnerable people who otherwise would be unable to maintain housing stability.
